A brief description of the open access repository:
In May 2017, the Faculty of Vassar College voted to adopt a policy to share much of their published research with readers worldwide. In doing so, Vassar has joined with many other colleges and universities throughout the United States in an effort to create more equitable and widespread access to high quality scholarship. Faculty can use this web site to submit or waive articles
Institutional repositories use a Green OA business model. The items deposited in an institutional repository can be pre-prints or post-prints. Most journals allow pre-prints to be posted even if they own the copyright to the finished article.

VI. Open Access Policy – May 2017 Library Committee
The Faculty of Vassar College is committed to disseminating its research and scholarship as widely as possible. The Vassar College Libraries endeavor to make eligible faculty work publicly available in an open-access online repository. The Faculty adopts the following policy:
Each member grants to Vassar College permission in the form of a nonexclusive, worldwide license to reproduce and publicly distribute, via Vassar’s institutional repository, each of their peer-reviewed scholarly journal articles, provided that the articles will not be sold for a profit. Each faculty member is expected to provide an electronic copy of the accepted manuscript of each article to the repository in an appropriate format as specified by the Vassar College Libraries.
The policy applies to all scholarly articles authored or co-authored while the person is a member of the Faculty of Vassar College; work completed prior to appointment at Vassar can be submitted at the faculty member’s discretion. For articles with copyright restrictions, and/or upon the express direction of the faculty author, the Office of the Dean of the Faculty will not apply the policy for a particular article or delay access for the necessary period of time. In collaboration with the Library Committee, the Office of the Dean of the Faculty will be responsible for interpreting and applying this policy.
