Open Access Community Investment Program

The Lyrasis Open Access Community Investment Program (OACIP) provides a community-driven framework that enables multiple stakeholders — including academic and public libraries, academic departments, institutions, research centers, museums and funding agencies — to evaluate and collectively fund Diamond Open Access (OA) journals.


OACIP Application Process for Journals

Application details for the 2026-2027 OACIP cohort will be coming soon!

We are currently working with the OACIP Advisory Board to update the OACIP Criteria Form, which serves as the basis of the application process.
