    Funding support for open access journals
    (2018) Gallilee, Patty; Gaynor, Kathy; Hall, Robyn

The following report details attempts to “flip” subscription charges in this manner, and provides recommendations on ways that libraries can continue to support the publication and discovery of OA content into the future.
