Request for Reimbursement or Payment of Publication Costs

Policy: Article 24.8 of the OEA Agreement provides for University payment of “…reasonable page costs for a bargaining unit member’s scholarly research in a professional journal or periodical, and the cost of one hundred (100) reprints of such published material, providing the publication carries the University’s identification.” In addition, the University will pay for submission fees for “…those peer reviewed professional journals or periodicals where a submission fee is required….” The Article also specifies that the “…University will provide one hundred reprints from the Central Services Department” for “…monographs that do not exceed 100 Pages….” Article 24.8 specifies that: “Approval shall be secured in writing by the individual from the dean of Graduate Studies before placing an order for the reprints or making a financial commitment to page costs.”

Procedure: This form is to be filled out completely (as applicable) and submitted to the Dean of Graduate Studies and Research through the Office of Grants and Sponsored Programs, which processes requests for payment of publication charges. Should prior approval for reimbursement not be sought, the charges will not be honored and the faculty member’s commitment to the accepting journal or periodical will be considered to be a personal commitment. Approval must be obtained prior to submission of the manuscript for journal review.
