The UC Davis Open Access Fund pilot (UCD-OAF) supports UC Davis Academic Senate, Academic Federation members, faculty, post-docs, residents, fellows, and graduate students who want to make their journal articles free to all readers immediately upon publication.

UCD-OAF provides Davis authors reimbursement up to $1000/article for open access fees for those publishing in full open access journals (in which all articles are published open access).

UCD-OAF subsidizes, in various degrees, fees charged to authors who select open access. The program will also yield data that will be used to gauge faculty interest in — as well as the budgetary impacts of — these new modes of scholarly communication on the Davis campus.
