UI corresponding authors can now publish their journal articles Open Access and free of cost to them in any American Chemical Society (ACS) journal.  The University of Iowa Libraries has entered into an agreement with ACS to bundle the cost of journal subscriptions and Open Access (OA) publishing.  Under this three-year contract, UI authors can publish a significant number of articles OA with ACS. These articles can then be immediately read by anyone, anywhere, without the paywalls that traditionally accompany academic journals.  For more information, contact Conrad Bendixen<\/a>, or Leo Clougherty<\/a> from the Sciences Library.<\/span><\/p>\n

This arrangement is part of a larger effort by UI Libraries to reduce the cost of OA for individual researchers. Unfortunately, publishers often charge authors directly to pay for the cost of publishing OA journal articles. (For instance, ACS normally charges authors $4,500 per article for OA.) For faculty who don\u2019t have grant or departmental funding, this can be prohibitively expensive. These costs have soared in recent years and are a significant barrier to making research open and freely accessible.  <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
