Penn Press is delighted to announce that five of our journals will have open-access content in 2025 as part of the successful launch of Project MUSE’s Subscribe to Open Program (S2O). This program opens current issues without article processing charges for participating journals and allows Penn Press to join other publishers in our commitment to providing sustainable access to a broad readership. Combined with our select Diamond Open Access journals, one-third of all Penn Press journal content published in 2025 will be open-access!
With over 100 participating journals from 27 publishers, Project MUSE’s S2O Program represents a significant step towards providing access to a wide range of current interdisciplinary scholarly material. S2O’s community-based approach provides a low-risk path to increased access that benefits both libraries and publishers.
Five Penn Press journals are participating in MUSE’s S2O offer for 2025:
- Change Over Time
- Early American Studies
- Eudora Welty Review
- French Forum
- Humanity: An International Journal of Human Rights, Humanitarianism, and Development
Join us in celebrating this milestone by checking out the most recent issues of the journals above. We appreciate the libraries who subscribed to or renewed the Project MUSE collection, making the Subscribe to Open offer possible.

If you are located at an academic institution, please consider asking your librarian to support these efforts.
