A brief description of the open access policy, including the date adopted, any incentives or supports provided, and the repository(ies) used:
The Digital Commons of Loyola Marymount University and Loyola Law School provides software to manage and publish journals electronically, including the online submission of manuscripts, distribution of manuscripts for anonymous peer review, publication of accepted manuscripts, and archiving of content. The Library promotes open access publication, which removes price barriers (subscription or other fees) and permission barriers (copyright and licensing restrictions)
from the accessibility of information and scholarship. Priority support will be given for journals that are open access immediately upon publication and follow peer review procedures. This particular update to the policy was July 2014.
