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 University of Trier had agreed to share the data with OpenAPC as well. This data has now been transferred and integrated.
Contact Person is Dr. Evgenia Grishina.
Cost data
The new data set covers publication fees for 12 articles, total expenditure amounts to 27 235€ and the average fee is 2 270€. 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.
The following table provides an overview of the reported APCs:
| Articles | Fees paid in EURO | Mean Fee paid | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Elsevier BV | 3 | 10674 | 3558 |
