The deadline for applications for the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) Aid to Scholarly Journals funding opportunity is fast approaching. This grant provides up to $30,000 of funding per year over three years to enable journals to explore innovative activities as well as to help them to defray the costs associated with publishing scholarly articles, digital publishing and journal distribution on Canadian not-for-profit platforms.
These workshops were organized by Sonya Betz (University of Alberta) and Mariya Maistrovskaya (University of Toronto) in partnership with SSHRC and with support from CARL. There will be two webinars, one in French and one in English, specifically aimed at journals hosted by Canadian academic libraries. Journal editorial teams and librarians are invited to join representatives from SSHRC to learn more about the Aid to Scholarly journals grant, and to ask questions of the experts regarding the eligibility, application process, and adjudication of the grant. If you are considering applying for this grant or if you offer support to journals that are applying (or would just like to know more) please join us!
