The Library has several ways to assist you with Open Access publishing. While we do not currently provide APC funds to offset costs, Read-and-Publish agreements with the following publishers may help offset costs:
Read more about these agreements.
If you are not publishing with one of these publishers- there are still opportunities for you to publish open access in our Institutional Repository or other venues.
- Helping you negotiate your permissions (via SHERPA/RoMEO)
- Supporting Green OA publishing by helping you deposit your article copy in the Library's institutional repository Scholarship@Claremont
- FYI: Most publishers ( ~81%) give some form of blanket permission for authors to archive a version of their articles in an openly accessible place. The 19% that do not allow authors to archive a version of their article often allow for preprint archiving, which can be negotiated prior to signing the author’s copyright release.
- Helping you deposit your work in Scholarship@Claremont or help you find a suitable disciplinary OA repository for your work.
