                            During the periods under review, so-called
                            “offset deals” have further gained ground.
                            Under an “offset<br>
                            deal”, a consortium of institutions located
                            in the relevant country gains access to
                            journals in exchange for a lump<br>
                            sum, which is comprised of a readership fee
                            covering access to non-open access content
                            and a publication fee<br>
                            covering article processing charges (“APCs”)
                            of a pre-determined number of articles
                            authored by researchers at<br>
                            those institutions. These articles are then
                            made freely available on an open access
                            basis around the world. We<br>
                            have entered into offset deals in a number
                            of countries, including in the United
                            Kingdom, the Netherlands,<br>
                            Sweden and Austria. While these offset deals
