The Scholarly Publication Fund assists faculty members with the costs of scholarly publication. It is open to researchers at UBC
Vancouver and Okanagan in SSHRC-aligned disciplines.
Publishers and academic presses often request subventions (partial subsidies) to support the costs associated with monograph publishing, including costs associated with the use of images, copyrighted materials, or special production elements. Up to $75,000 will be available annually.
The Scholarly Publication Fund is intended to support researchers, particularly early-career researchers in the social sciences and humanities, to secure appropriate funding for these costs.
The fund aims to support research and scholarship aligned with SSHRC’s General Guidelines for Eligibility of Subject Matter for SSHRC and Eligibility of Applications Related to Health.
