Open access licenses

We aim to provide the best choice of user license options, which define how readers can reuse open access articles published on our platforms.

Elsevier's policy

  • Offer a choice between a commercial and a non-commercial Creative Commons license for gold open access articles in our proprietary titles

    • The choice is dependent on the journal in which the author chooses to publish — please refer to the journal's homepage for specific details

  • Use the Elsevier user license for our open archive content

  • We support green open access and accepted manuscripts can be self-archived following our sharing guidelines and are required to attach a CC-BY-NC-ND license

Choosing a license

Once selected, Creative Commons user licenses are non-revocable. We recommend authors check if their funding body requires a specific license. 

See the Creative Commons(S’ouvre dans une nouvelle fenêtre) website for more details about what to consider before choosing a user license. Find a full list of user licenses used by Elsevier.
