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 Deutsches Primatenzentrum - Leibniz-Institut für Primatenforschung had agreed to share the data with OpenAPC as well. This data has now been transferred and integrated.
Cost data
The new data covers APCs for 31 articles (31 unrelated to any agreement, none published under an agreement like DEAL). Total APC expenditure amounts to 81,933€ and the average fee is 2,643€.
