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 Technische Universität Dresden had agreed to share the data with OpenAPC as well. This data has now been transferred and integrated.
Contact person for the data set is Sebastian Schaarschmidt.

The new data covers APCs for 419 articles (183 unrelated to any agreement, 236 published under an agreement like DEAL). Total APC expenditure amounts to 1,023,206€ and the average fee is 2,442€.
