Chronos Hub and Delta Think have partnered to provide access to select open access benchmarking data via the Delta Think Open Access Data & Analytics Tool (OA DAT). This integration provides admins with seamless insights necessary to make continual, intelligent, data-driven decisions about Open Access.

“We’re excited to give organization administrators the opportunity to compare global statistics from Delta Think with their own organization’s actual data directly in Chronos Hub. For example, you can now benchmark the APCs you pay per journal and publisher with the global averages,” said Christian Grubak, CEO and Founder of Chronos Hub.

“The Delta Think Open Access Data & Analytics Tool helps organizations across the scholarly ecosystem make informed decisions about Open Access,” said Lauren Kane, CEO of Delta Think. “As such, we’re well-aligned with Chronos’ aims and delighted to share this valuable benchmarking data with Chronos Hub administrators.”

The partnership provides all existing Chronos Hub administrators with selected data from Delta Think’s OA DAT as a complementary service. Full access to the OA DAT is limited to Delta Think direct subscribers.
