Have you recently published in an open access journal?
The Graduate Student Open Access Award, sponsored by the Graduate Students’ Association (GSA), MacOdrum Library and the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Postdoctoral Affairs (FGPA), was established in 2011 to recognize Carleton University graduate students in publishing research in open access journals. Open access journals are an alternative to the current user-pay system for accessing academic research. Fees are charged to the author/creator in order to make them open and accessible. This award is designed to offset these publishing fees for graduate students. Up to five monetary awards of $1000.00 will be distributed.
Any GSA member who has had a paper published or accepted (pending minor revisions) in an open access journal since January 1, 2016, can apply. The deadline is February 15th, 2018.
For a list of criteria, and more information, please see the Graduate Student Open Access Award page.
