Open Access Edition of Embracing Age How Catholic Nuns Became Models of Aging Well by Anna Insolio Corwin
Rutgers University Press (RUP) is applying for $5,500.00 in NEH funding to publish a monograph entitled Embracing Age How Catholic Nuns Became Models of Aging Well, by Anna Insolio Corwin, as an Open Access eBook. The book project would receive a grant payment of $5,500.00. The eBook will be made available for download throughout the world at no cost to end user, and will be protected under a CC-BY-NC-ND license. The $5,500 grant will allow RUP to set the eBook sales it budgets when initially projecting a book project's lifetime value to zero, and allows RUP to compensate its authors. The grant will be distributed according to the following split: $5,000 will replace sales income and be used to offset the cost of printing the book. It will also replace the approximately $500.00 of projected lifetime eBook royalties with a direct payment of $500.00 made directly to the eBook author. The eBook will remain available indefinitely.
