When a UK student, faculty or staff member has a paper peer-reviewed and accepted in one of IGI Global's scholarly journals, the author will be asked if they would like to publish under a traditional publishing model (where access is granted to subscribing entities) or as an open access article (where access is open to subscribers and non-subscribers). If the author chooses the latter and UK has waivers remaining, the author will be notified that they are able to use a waiver to cover $1500 APC they would normally fund.
The APC waiver fund is only good for a year.
If you have additional questions about how this waiver works, please contact UK Libraries' Electronic Resources Unit at [email protected].
