This program provides an opportunity for tier 1-3 university presses to join together to support open access publishing. This is the first move into open access for many of these publishers.  Cost recovery and financial stability is critical for these not-for-profit publishers. The three-year delayed access gives publishers the ability to secure additional funding through print and direct-to-consumer sales to help ensure their future sustainability. We will be evaluating this during the pilot and through the duration of the program to measure the financial viability of this model for the publishers, and test if any adjustments can be made to the delayed open access period.

The Library receives new materials through exchange with libraries in this country and abroad, gifts, materials received from local, state and federal agencies as well as foreign governments, purchase, and copyright deposits. Thousands of items are added to the collections of the Library each working day. Selection officers review materials and decide which should be kept and added to the permanent collections. Copyright deposits make up the core of the collections, particularly those in the map, music, motion picture, and prints and photographs divisions.
