Some journals require a fee to be paid in order to make an article open access, called an article processing charge, or APC. This is the case with Gold open access journals that require APCs in order for an article to be published. It is also the case with 鈥渉ybrid鈥� journals that are subscription-based to read but allow a fee to be paid to make specific articles open access on the publisher鈥檚 website at the time of publication.
看片视频 Libraries do not have a fund for Article Processing Charges (APCs). However, there are additional options for funding:
- APCs are typically an allowable grant expense; check with your funder
- Professional Development Fund for Eligible Academics can be used to cover APCs
- APC Discounts and waivers through 看片视频 Libraries
Finding APC Discounts and Waivers
看片视频 Libraries have received through agreements with several publishers a number of APC discounts and full waivers. You can search for specific journals and discover whether there is an available APC discount with SciFree Journal Search Tool. This tool contains information on existing waivers and discounts for APCs available to 看片视频 affiliated authors.聽Note that if you do not find an entry for a journal you are looking for, it does not have an available discount. These discounts are subject to change at any time.
