Richard Poynder on funders underwriting APC
by Subbiah Arunachalam 18 Aug '14

18 Aug '14

Why should funders and research institutions consider ceasing paying article processing charges for researchers? Please read Richard Poynder's editorial "Open access: What price affordability?" in *eCancer*, < http://ecancer.org/journal/editorial/41-open-access-what-price-affordabilit… >. Open access publishing (paying APC) will fail to solve the *affordability* problem. In embracing OA publishing, for instance, traditional publishers are pricing their APCs not to reflect their true costs, but at a level that will enable them to migrate their journals to an OA environment without suffering any loss of revenue. And OA publishers are increasing their prices in response. [Currently it costs around $3,000 per paper to publish in a subscription journal with an OA option (known as hybrid OA), and it can cost up to $2,885 per paper to publish in an OA journal.] The growing trend for governments, research funders and universities to create OA funds to encourage researchers to make their work freely available suggests that pay-to-publish gold OA (charged at publishers’ asking price) is set to become the norm. Developing countries should resist this trend and encourage their scientists to publish in any journal they want to but make their papers available to all through repositories (institutional or central).
