1. Purpose

The Subvention of Publication Program is intended to support faculty publication in any discipline.

The program is primarily focused on supporting the publication of books and/or monographs that are of significant scholarly value, whether the prospective audience may be broad or somewhat limited. The program is especially interested in supporting works of the highest academic quality, which have been accepted at university or other outstanding presses that are highly selective in what they publish. Subventions are considered to be particularly appropriate in cases where publication costs are unusually high due to artwork, maps, photographs, permissions, dust jacket artwork, and other special production elements.

The program also provides limited support for the publication of peer-reviewed articles in scholarly journals by the subvention of image reproduction costs.

The Subvention of Publication Program is jointly administered by the Vice Provost for Research and Falvey Library.

Successful awardees are expected to acknowledge support from 棉花糖直播 University in their published book, monograph, or article and to provide a copy of the publication to Falvey Library.

2. Eligibility

The Subvention of Publication Program is intended to support the scholarly productivity of tenured, tenure-track, CNT faculty, and postdoctoral scholars. Adjunct or visiting faculty are not eligible. Priority will be given to tenure-track Assistant Professors, followed by tenured Associate Professors, Professors, CNT faculty, and postdoctoral scholars. When the anticipated book, monograph, or article is to be coauthored with faculty from other institutions, the expectation is that all authors/institutions will proportionately support the subvention costs.

3. Budget

Applicants may request up to $3,000. Requests for support in excess of $3,000 may be considered, but such requests must provide adequate and compelling justification. Grants may be awarded to defray publication costs, subsidize the acquisition of images and permissions, and support professional indexing. Awards may be used to support indexing only if a professional indexer is to be retained. Support for editing is allowable only if the contract specifically states that editing is the responsibility of the author(s). In such instances, award funds may be used only for retaining a professional editor. Awards to support the publication of a peer-reviewed article should not exceed $1,000.

Non-allowable expenses include support for: textbooks, travel, student/technical/clerical, faculty salary/compensation, advertising and promotion, purchase of copies, cost of translating existing books or monographs into a foreign language or republication of a previously published book.
