If your research is funded by a Charity Open Access Fund member (COAF) or the UKRI (including Research Councils), then you can apply for funds to cover your open access publication charges.

The application process will now be easier than ever, as the University of Nottingham Libraries’ Research Support Team have announced that a new open access funding web form will be launched on Friday 23 August 2019.

The new form is user-friendly and specifically designed to streamline the funding application process by:

• pre-assessing eligibility for UKRI/COAF funding
• adapting to an applicant’s answers
• simplifying payment process via a school or project code
• providing useful guidance throughout the process

The application form, and further information on the application process, can be found on the Libraries’ website or by emailing openaccess@nottingham.ac.uk.
