How is Open Access (OA) publishing funded?

Answer

Open Access (OA) journals and hybrid journals may require an additional payment to the publisher to be made to have a paper immediately open access on the date of publication. This charge known as an APC (Article Processing Charge) is usually payable when the manuscript is editorially accepted and before publication and is charged to either the author, research funder, institution or employer.

Application's should be submitted to the University Research Office. Further details and an application form can be found in the Funding for OA publishing guide.
