My childhood in Michigan notwithstanding, I\u2019ve never been particularly good with winter, so I\u2019m enjoying the turn of the temperatures towards above-freezing this week. One of my current tasks is pulling together lists of Library reserve items to support the courses at the <a href=\"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/umbs\">U-M Biological Station<\/a>, and I\u2019m really excited to get back to Pellston this year. Hopefully I\u2019ll see some of you there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you may be aware, U-M benefits from a number of deals with publishers that reduce or waive altogether the article processing charges (APCs) often associated with open-access publications. We maintain a page on our Scholarly Publishing guide that summarizes <a href=\"https:\/\/guides.lib.umich.edu\/scholarlypublishing\/discounts-funding\">the currently-available discounts<\/a>. We\u2019ve recently added a couple of new deals that may benefit some of you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Elsevier: U-M\u2019s recently-renewed subscription agreement with Elsevier includes a 10% discount on APCs for U-M authors publishing in hybrid journals. You can identify eligible journals using Elsevier\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/agreements.journals.elsevier.com\/university-of-michigan\">Journal Search Tool<\/a> (search for specific titles, or check the subject lists, such as the one for <a href=\"https:\/\/agreements.journals.elsevier.com\/university-of-michigan?pageNo=1&amp;subject=Ecology\">Ecology<\/a>); for more information on the discount process, consult this <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/presentation\/d\/1hedLrYDQH2k6T-I5XKwCayuZWXAxSqi2\/edit?usp=sharing&amp;ouid=104323200714445871241&amp;rtpof=true&amp;sd=true\">step-by step slide deck<\/a>.<\/li><li>Wiley: Our recent subscription extension with Wiley includes a substantial pool of full APC waivers for articles by U-M authors, with a 10% discount on APCs for articles published in hybrid journals once those waivers have been used.

You can read more about the new Clark Commons space <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lib.umich.edu\/about-us\/news\/clark-commons-coming-shapiro-library\">here<\/a>, and get the latest updates from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lib.umich.edu\/about-us\/about-library\/clark-commons-project\">the project\u2019s webpage<\/a>. The print journals from that floor will remain accessible, either from remote storage or in compact shelving in the Shapiro basement. As for me, I\u2019ve relocated to a new office in the Taubman Health Sciences Library, which is a profound change after nearly 17 years in the same Shapiro office! Regardless of where I\u2019m located, I\u2019m still available to assist you with your research,&nbsp; teaching or other information-related needs &#8211; my email, Twitter handle, and Zoom office hour info can all be found on my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lib.umich.edu\/users\/samarti\">library profile page<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Scott Martin, Biological Sciences Librarian, University of Michigan Library Happy almost-spring!
