The Library Unbound: Milne Library News

Thinking about publishing in an open access or hybrid journal soon?

Milne Library is here to support you! Thanks to a $30,000 award from SUNY Oneonta’s Regaining Momentum initiative, we can help cover the costs of open access publishing, including article processing charges (APCs) and book processing charges (BPCs). Funding will be distributed in $6,000 increments each semester through Fall 2025. The application window opens every August and January.  

This semester, we've expanded our funding to include hybrid journals, with coverage available for up to $3,000 per APC or up to 75% of a hybrid journal. Since the first round of funding, we have successfully awarded over $5,249 to SUNY Oneonta authors. This funding has allowed them to publish and disseminate their research and creative works more widely, ensuring their contributions reach a broader audience while reducing the financial barriers associated with academic publishing.
