Need funds to publish in an open access journal?

They are available from the UT Open Publishing Support Fund.

From the Open Publishing Support Fund Web site:  “Each year a smaller percentage of all scholarly publications is available to researchers because of increasing prices, even though the production of scholarly information is growing exponentially. Faculty members traditionally give away their copyrighted work to publishers and the university often buys back the content at premium prices. The Open Publishing Support Fund improves access to UTK research and

• enables authors to retain their copyrights
• accelerates the online availability of peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly journal articles generated by UTK researchers
• raises campus awareness about the benefits of open access”
