Understanding Journal and Publisher Open Access Policies
Contact the UVM Libraries Scholarly Communication Librarian, Donna O'Malley for help with:
Finding or parsing journal or publisher open access policies
Locating PMCIDs or NIHMS IDs for submitted manuscripts
Determining whether an article is already deposited in PubMed Central
Check with Your Publisher
It may be worth your time to contact the journal publisher or your editor about reducing or eliminating the publishing charge for your specific article. A few UVM authors have reported success with this approach.
