Hi all,
A friend at Rutgers made me aware of this upcoming webinar about the origins and impacts of the 2022 OSTP Public Access Memo (i.e., the “Nelson Memo”), which expanded the pre-existing federal public access policy in a few ways, including expanding it to all federal grant-funding agencies and removing the long-standing permission for there…[Read more]

Thank you Jill, this is extremely helpful. This particular faculty member has paid fees in the past out of grant money. I believe it is becoming harder to do so as the costs add up. There are also students involved in the research and as authors of these papers, who are obviously not expected to contribute money towards fees. I’ll read the article…[Read more]

Jill Cirasella replied to the topic Open Access journal publishing fees in the forum LACUNY Scholarly Communications Roundtable 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Hi Rosemary,
Great question. To the best of my knowledge, none of the CUNY campuses have funds for covering article processing charges (APCs) for open access articles. I have heard stray anecdotes about individual faculty around CUNY getting the fee paid by their department or dean or provost, but I believe those stories are very much the…[Read more]

A faculty member asked me the same thing. I’ve been told CUNY does not pay for OA processing fees.

Rosemary Farrell started the topic Open Access journal publishing fees in the forum LACUNY Scholarly Communications Roundtable via email 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Hello everyone,
Do any of the schools you work at have a budget to help defray the cost of open access publishing fees? SPH does not, at either the departmental or admin level. One of our professors asked me about this recently and in the event of a faculty advocacy effort, I told her I’d gather evidence from other CUNY campuses.
Thanks for your…[Read more]

Hi all,
In the fall, the LACUNY Scholarly Communications Roundtable met on a set schedule, which worked for many but unfortunately not everyone who wanted to attend. This semester, I’ll schedule each meeting separately, with its own poll, in the hopes of finding a good time for the fuller set of interested folks.
In February, we’ll be dis…[Read more]

Thanks for these notes Jill. Sorry I missed the meeting.
The book does look amazing!
I think all of the chapters in the section Intersections look compelling for future discussions.
Thanks for an excellent suggestion.
