Finding Reputable Journals - Open Access - Research Guides at University of Michigan Library

lkfitz's bookmarks 2017-12-20

Summary:

"You have three options when choosing to make your work open:

  • Publish in an explicitly open access journal, which might involve paying an article processing charge (APC)—a fee that is commonly used to offset the lack of a paid subscription to support the journal.
  • Publish in a hybrid journal that uses both open access and subscription models for making its content available to readers. APCs for these journals can be just as high (if not higher) than OA-only journals. High-profile journals and publishers in a number of disciplines are developing hybrid options for authors who choose (or are required by funding mandates) to make their work open.
  • Publish in a traditional subscription journal and self-archive a version of your article in your institutional or disciplinary repository (negotiating for the right to do so if necessary)."
