Workshop for the Library Community on SSHRC’s Aid to Scholarly Journals Grant Program

French session
Date: July 24, 2025
Time: 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm ET

Registration

Many library-published or supported journals are eligible to apply for the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) Aid to Scholarly Journals funding opportunity. This program has been substantially revised for 2025, and the deadline for applications is September 10, 2025.

The grants support Canadian scholarly research and dissemination by offering a contribution to enable journals to defray the costs associated with publishing open access scholarly articles and digital journal dissemination. Grants are valued at up to $42,400 per year over three years for emerging journals and up to $52,000 per year over three years for established journals.

The CARL Library Publishing Community Engagement Team has partnered with SSHRC to arrange two webinars, one in French and one in English, specifically for 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, and merit review process. 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!

This session will be recorded.
