There are a number of options to open up your work: publish in an Open Access journal or book platform; archive published articles, post-prints, preprints, monographs, conference papers, dissertations, theses, honors projects, or other creative works in the SUNY Open Access Repository (SOAR); or consider paying processing charges to a publisher, when possible, to remove article access restrictions.
