HSHSL Open Access Publishing Fund

The Health Sciences and Human Services Library’s (HSHSL) Open Access Publishing Fund is designed to improve access to research produced at the University of Maryland, Baltimore and:

  • Promote publishing by early-career researchers
  • Enable authors to retain their copyrights
  • Accelerate the online availability of peer-reviewed scholarly journal articles generated by UMB researchers
  • Raise campus awareness about the benefits of open access

The fund will reimburse 50 percent of the cost of article processing charges for Open Access (OA) journals up to a maximum of $3,000 for early-career researchers. The fund has a limited budget. Reimbursements will be made on a first-come, first-served basis until funds are exhausted.
