Betreff: [GOAL]  $1, 300 per article or $25, 000 annual subsidy can generously support small scholar-led OA journal publishing

Drawing from interviews and focus groups with editors of small scholar-led journals, I've developed one generous model that illustrates how $1,300 per article or a $25,000 / year journal subsidy can generously a support small open access journal. In brief, for a small journal publishing only 20 peer-reviewed articles per year, this amount could fund top-of-the-line journal hosting, free up the time of a senior academic to devote just a little less than one full day per article, hire a part-time senior support staff at a nice hourly rate to provide over 2 days' support per peer-reviewed article, with an annual budget of $2,500 for extra costs.
