Purpose

Belk Library has agreements that enable researchers at ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ to publish their articles as open access by covering the article processing fee.

Support Description

Open access (OA) allows for free and immediate online access to scholarly works that anyone can read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or share. OA differs from traditional pay-to-read subscription models that are traditionally paid for by libraries.

OA publishing comes with severalÌýadvantages: it removes access barriers for the research community and beyond, and it also gives the authors more exposure and a wider reach. Authors retain their intellectual property rights, and they may choose to publish under aÌýÌýthat specifies how readers may use their articles.
