Summary:Some libraries in Taiwan have adopted Publish and Read Plan or Transformative Agreements in the library journal subscription, which treated as Open Access plans in transition, for the journal renewal. As the publishing amount of scholarly articles in Taiwan are less than the Western countries, the most agreements here came up as Article Processed Charge (APC) discount or Read and Publish plan from scholarly association or medium publishers.

We intend to discover more fundamental steps to achieving ways or models in line with the Taiwan expectation.
