BioOne was established in 1999[2] in Washington, DC, as a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization by five scholarly collaborators: the American Institute of Biological Sciences, the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC),[3] The University of Kansas, Greater Western Library Alliance, and Allen Press.

The main impetus for BioOne's creation was the common desire amongst key scholarly stakeholders for an alternative to commercial scholarly publishing.[4]

Half of the subscription fee revenue from BioOne Complete is divided between participating publishers.[3]

In 2018, BioOne launched The BioOne Career Center, providing both job posters and job seekers in the biological, ecological, and environmental sciences with an easy-to-use, curated portal from a trusted source.
