Since 2019, CAUL has pursued transformative agreements with publishers and has to date negotiated 15 transformative agreements for Australian university libraries. The read and publish agreements include deals with small, mid-sized, and large publishers, reflecting CAUL's commitment to support a diverse open publishing environment. In tandem with the strategic procurement program, CAUL's Advancing Open Scholarship program has focused on strategic advocacy at a national level in addition to undertaking practical projects that support open research practice.
