The Open Access Publishing Fund is open !!!

The Open Access Publishing Fund is now open! 

Supported by a $30,000 award from SUNY Oneonta's Regaining Momentum Initiative, this fund aims to make Open Access publishing more accessible for SUNY Oneonta authors. Whether you're publishing a peer-reviewed article or an Open Access book, the fund can cover up to $3,000 per article. The fund is distributed in $6,000 allotments each semester through Fall 2025, with any unused funds rolling over. Articles published in Gold Open Access journals are prioritized, though articles in hybrid journals are also eligible, with the fund covering up to 75% of their article processing charges (APCs). 

Applications open twice a year, in August and January, for a three-week period. Early applications are strongly encouraged, as funding is limited and distributed on a priority basis to tenure-track faculty, graduate students, and first-time applicants. 

If you're planning to publish soon, take advantage of this opportunity to make your work Open Access and receive support to help cover the costs of article processing charges (APCs).
