Hi Anita,
I'm happy to report that while JSP is not usually an open access
journal, for this issue the folks at the University of Toronto Press
have agreed to a green open access procedure, whereby the version of
each article submitted for copyediting, typesetting, etc. can be
deposited in the author's institutional repository. The
post-copyediting,typeset, tagged version may be deposited after twelve
months per the usual policy.
For that regular policy on Open Access, see
https://www.utpjournals.com/Journal-of-Scholarly-Publishing.html and
click on the OA Policy tag.
I hope this answers your question.
Best,
Alex
