Book Publication Subvention Application Form

The Book Publication Subvention Fund was established to provide faculty with the opportunity to apply for subvention funding to assist with the costs of scholarly publication.

Publication subvention support is awarded on a competitive basis, contingent on the availability of funds, and is not guaranteed.  Cost sharing from the faculty member’s department and college is encouraged.  In general, the highest priority will be given to projects where subvention funds are explicitly required for publication that is, where the publisher’s contract requires an author subvention in order for the book to be published. Projects are eligible for up to $1,000 in subvention support.
