2025 Collections Pricing
Options for your Institution
Our tiered model uses institutional research classification rankings to offer a pricing structure that fairly reflects the differences in demand among all customers. We have assigned tiers to US institutions using the Carnegie system, to UK institutions using Jisc bands, and to other worldwide institutions by level of research activity and degree offerings, as well as the World Bank’s ranking of countries by income.
Large, research-intensive institutions that offer several advanced degree programs have been assigned by Annual Reviews into Tier 1 and 2. Tier 1 institutions have been determined by their total research output over a 2-year period using data from the 2015/2016 Web of Science.TM Institutions that do not offer graduate degrees or have smaller Master’s programs are assigned to Tier 6. Please see the detailed Tiered Pricing Information table below.
