Articles on publication fees

  • Image:2stars.png "PNAS Introduces Open Access Publishing Option" 2004! David Goodman, LIU [1]
"The average current cost of producing articles roughly seems to be $1500-$4000 for nonprofit publishers and $3000-$8000 for commercial (based on their own estimates in the UK hearings--I am deliberately using very wide ranges to accomodate all opinions)."
  • Image:1star.png "The costs and benefits of library site licenses to academic journals" 2004 [2]
Table 1: Mean institutional price per page for journals in Neuroscience in 1997: $0.89 (for profit), $0.10 (nonprofit)
  • Image:1star.png "Who Pays for Open Access?" PLoS Biology, 2004 [3]
"$1,700 in page charges that the average PNAS author already pays"

"In the EMBO Journal, for example, authors are allowed six pages of text free, but are then charged $200 per page beyond that. A review of recent issues shows that almost all authors exceed six pages, voluntarily paying on average over $800 to publish their articles."

Publication fees by journals

Please add alphabetically to the table. Publication costs are in US dollars. Please give a source link.
