The UO Libraries Open Access Article Processing Charge Award can cover up to $2,000 per UO researcher per year to support the publication of open access peer-reviewed journal articles until funding runs out. A UO researcher must be first author, the paper must be accepted for publication, and the journal must be fully open access. UO researchers who are early career will be privileged in the case that more requests are made than can be fully funded.
