The University of California announced today an expansion of the university’s open access agreement with Wiley, one of the world’s largest publishers. Building on the success of a 2022 pilot agreement at five UC campuses, including UC Irvine, researchers at all 10 UC campuses will now receive funding support to publish open access, making significantly more UC research freely available to people around the world.
Since its founding, UCI Libraries have been a member of the Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP), helping ensure access to United States government public records.
Through FDLP libraries, the US Government Publishing Office (GPO) provides free public access to US federal documents and resources. Serving as a FDLP member entails maintaining a physical collection of materials as well as, increasingly, helping library patrons navigate the vast collection of US government materials available online.

A recent study published in the Journal of Business & Finance Librarianship helps measure the impact of librarians’ efforts to support campus entrepreneurs.

In honor of Black History Month, UCI Libraries have gathered a list of resources and materials that highlight the history, heritage, art, and scholarship of Black Americans. From books, films, and music to research and news archives, we hope these materials will spark discussions about race and representation around campus and within our community.
Unless otherwise noted, these materials are open to the public and available at no cost throughout the year as part of UCI Libraries’ ongoing effort to share resources that highlight Black history and culture.
