Stevan Harnad, No Need To Keep Waiting For Gold OA, Open Access Archivangelism, November 14, 2007. Excerpt:
Comment. Stevan is right. To summarize: there are at least three ways for authors to avoid fees and still provide OA to their peer-reviewed postprints. (1) At fee-based OA journals, many authors can get a fee subsidy from their funder or employer, and many others can get a fee waiver from the journal. (2) Most OA journals charge no fees in the first place. (3) Green OA or self-archiving charges no fees. |
