Sustainable Scholarship

The UVA Library is committed to supporting the broad, diverse needs of our community of scholars, teachers, and learners, and doing so sustainably. Our investments are shaped by our values, and our mission to serve the University and the public for centuries to come.

Explore this site to learn more about how the Library is moving to make scholarship more sustainable, and consider taking action — in your research, in your writing, and in your other other scholarly work — to ensure your own scholarship is sustainably produced and distributed.

Together, we can make substantial contributions to the public service vision of the University by working toward an ecosystem that fosters high-quality research, fair and transparent authors' rights, and ongoing equitable access to the rich scholarly content produced in our institutions. 

Knowing we have your support for UVA Library's efforts to create sustainable scholarly communications is important. Learn more about how you can take part in making the change and take action.
