Summary:
"We are extremely pleased to announce that the University of Oklahoma Libraries have joined the Open Library of Humanities’ Library Partnership Subsidy system. Founded in 1890, the University of Oklahoma is a public research university located in Norman, Oklahoma. OU’s Norman undergraduate population is just over 20,000, giving students a major university experience in a private college atmosphere. With three campuses in Oklahoma, OU also offers study abroad opportunities at several locations and OU campuses overseas.
The Open Library of Humanities is an academic-led, gold open-access publisher with no author-facing charges. With funding from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the platform covers its costs by payments from an international library consortium, rather than any kind of author fee."
