ASH Berlin 2023 OAPK data integrated


The Forschungszentrum Jülich collects publication cost data from German institutions as part of the DFG programme “Open Access Publication Funding”.

When reporting their publication costs, the Alice Salomon University of Applied Sciences Berlin (ASH Berlin) had agreed to share the data with OpenAPC as well. This data has now been transferred and integrated.

Contact person for the ASH Berlin data is Claudia Voigtländer.

The new data set covers publication fees for 3 articles, total expenditure amounts to 5,979€ and the average fee is 1,993€. Please note that articles published in hybrid journals under the DEAL agreements are not included in this list, as they are aggregated in OpenAPC’s transformative agreements data set.
