Open access publishing typically comes with a cost, known as article processing charges (APCs). These charges are often thousands of dollars.
To help cover the cost of these fees, Atkins Library has negotiated publishing waivers for APCs with publishers like Elsevier, Springer Nature, Wiley, and more. Find which journals have APC waivers and discounts with our Open Journal Finder tool. You can search by journal name, discipline, and more to identify journals with no-cost publishing options. This tool can be especially useful for people seeking to comply with federal funding mandates around open publishing.
