Did you know that the University Libraries can help you publish Open Access (OA) without paying a fee?

In 2024, University Libraries began participating in Read & Publish consortium subscription deals. These agreements include traditional journal access and cover OA publishing fees for affiliated authors. That means if you’re the corresponding author and affiliated with Wichita State, your OA publishing fees are already paid through the library’s subscription at no extra cost to you.
