IGI Global’s Open Access (OA) Fee Waiver (Read and Publish) InitiativeFor any library that invests in IGI Global's InfoSci-Books and/or InfoSci-Journals databases, IGI Global will match the library’s investment with a fund of equal value to go toward subsidizing the OA article processing charges (APCs) for their students, faculty, and staff at that institution when their work is submitted and accepted under OA into an IGI Global journal.*

For more information, watch IGI Global's 2018 Charleston Conference Neapolitan Panel Session,
"Sustainable Open Access Approaches: Benefits for Researchers, Librarians, and Publishers"

*The fund will be offered on an annual basis and expire at the end of the subscription period. The fund would renew as the subscription is renewed for each year thereafter. The open access fees will be waived after the student, faculty, or staff’s paper has been vetted/accepted into an IGI Global journal as requested by the author(s) of the paper. Libraries in developing countries will have the match on their investment doubled.

What People Are Saying

"The interface itself is clean and simple, making it easy to view results. The resources are highly curated and relevant to practitioners and researchers across the fields of information and technology. The materials are easy to access, view, cite, and save." [...] "This is a valuable resource for institutions."
- Gricel Dominguez, Florida International University, USA, Library Journal
"Well formatted; clear print and a responsive layout perfect for increasing text size or use on a mobile device. A table of contents appears on the left side of the navigation and moves with the user as they scroll through the contents. This provides easy access to other chapters as well as any supplementary materials associated with the title."
- Bonnie J.M. Swoger, Library Journal
Library Journal
"The search mechanism is very easy to use, and as such, many different searches can be done in a relatively short time period. As a result, a student (and researcher) will be able to conduct a broad review of current and past research in a particular area. The timeliness of information is improved because publications can be made accessible before the paper copy is received in the mail. In the past, one had to wait for the distribution of journals to gain access to them. The online system means access to information anywhere and at any time. This is critical for many researchers who are working at home, in the office, or perhaps even abroad."
- Shirley A. Becker, PhD, Northern Arizona University
"Provides an excellent entry into the research literature of the field. It presents a manageable number of highly relevant sources on topics of interest to a wide range of researchers. The sources are scholarly, but also accessible to 'practitioners'."
- Lisa Stimatz, MLS, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA
"This database is excellent for locating a wide range of documents which will be of use to me and my students."
- Susan Myburgh, PhD, University of South Australia, Australia
"Recommended. A supplement to libraries' information sciences collection."
- CHOICE Magazine, Vol. 45 (2)
