Article Processing Charges (APCs) and Page Charges: Information & Strategies:

Over the last couple of years, you may have noticed a shift in many journals towards Open Access (OA) formats, or, in general, a change to journals’ publication charge policies.

In addition, MIT’s agreements with publishers keep evolving. These changes have implications for submitting authors (you!). It’s best to be informed.

See Stargate for information on the following topics:
