[BOAI] eLife Latest: The costs of publishing

[Emily Packer]

[With apologies for cross-posting]

Dear All,

I thought you might be interested in our latest blog post about publishing
costs at eLife.

The data shows that a selective journal can sustain itself with a mid-range
publication fee.

For the full details, please see our post at
https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Felifesciences.org%2Finside-elife%2F719e655d%2Felife-latest-the-costs-of-publishing&data=01%7C01%7Cboai-forum%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C0bb2d654b9774c7a94b808d7d19431a2%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0&sdata=1WbGIeZra987vyqkVOw49Ryn91ZBpMnF7iFZR2iumfE%3D&reserved=0
.

We emphasise that data on costs are not only valuable for their
relationship to publication fees. Transparency around the real costs of
publishing is a critical part of what we need to define financial models
for the future – models that are globally accessible and ensure the
vibrancy of research communication, evaluation and curation.

If you'd like more information, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Many thanks, and I hope everyone's keeping well.

Best wishes,

Emily
