Academic librarians often work to educate and guide authors, fostering trust within the ever-changing processes of academic publishing. This article analyzes collection development decisions by assessing the outcomes of a six-year period of contracts between a big five publisher and an academic library that culminated in a transformative agreement. Funded institutional authors were surveyed to investigate the impact of the publish portion of the transformative agreement on their open access choices. Authors were more likely to choose hybrid publishing in cases where they had not considered the option. The library’s position, situated between the needs of authors and publishers, is increasingly one of limited funds and limited authority.
