Iowa State University supports Open Access publishing in multiple ways. Two of the most direct ways in which this support is provided include discounts on Open Access article publication charges (APCs) and grants which can support Open Access article and monograph publishing.
The University Library also supports Open Access publishing more directly, through our Digital Press. The Iowa State University Digital Press publishes open access journals, conference proceedings, and monographs in subject areas represented in Iowa State’s curricular and research offerings. Besides existing journals, conference proceedings, and monographs created by Iowa State faculty, students, and staff, the Digital Press can also help create and host new publications!
