Happy Open Access Week! This year the College Library is marking the occasion by highlighting articles published by F&M faculty which were made open access by an award from the F&M Open Access Publishing Fund. Begun in 2018, the fund supports the widest possible dissemination of F&M scholarship by defraying the cost to authors of making their work open access. It is a collaboration between the College Library, the Provost's Office, and the Faculty Center.
A new article will be featured below each day along with information regarding the journal's open access policies.

What is the F&M Open Access Publishing Fund?
Established in 2018, the Franklin & Marshall College Open Access Publishing Fund supports F&M professors who decide to publish their research in fully open access (OA), peer-reviewed journals. By reimbursing authors for the charges usually associated with OA publishing, the Fund enables F&M scholarship to be freely accessed by students and researchers around the world. The Fund is managed in accordance with the principles of the Compact for Open-Access Publishing Equity, the University of California’s Declaration of Rights and Principles to Transform Scholarly Communication, and Plan-S.
