Open Access Publishing Grant

糖心Vlog’s Open Access Publishing Grant helps 糖心Vlog faculty, staff, postdoctoral researchers, and graduate students publish their work openly. The grant can be used to help pay (APCs) for Open Access (OA) articles, book chapters, or books that are not already covered by 糖心Vlog Libraries’ publishing agreements.

Criteria

  • Open to current 糖心Vlog faculty, staff, postdoctoral researchers, and graduate students
  • An 糖心Vlog author must be the corresponding author
  • Limit of one grant per author per year
  • Eligible publications include peer-reviewed journal articles, books, and book chapters
  • Publications in predatory journals (as identified by ) are not eligible
  • Funding is for forthcoming publications only; previously paid charges are not covered
  • Publications must be openly available at publication with no embargo
  • Other grant or departmental publication funding must be used first

Funding

Funding will not exceed 125% of the average article processing charge fee for the current year. The average APC in 2026 is $3379, so this fund will not cover more than $4223 per article. A limited amount of funding is available each year. Once funds are exhausted, the grant will resume in the next fiscal year.
