Open Access Publishing Fund

To support open access publishing, University Libraries will pay up to $1,000 per article to help offset open access journal and book fees encountered by faculty and students. 

This fund operates on a first-come, first-served basis and is currently closed. The 2025-26 fund supported seven UD projects.
