Posted in: Archives

Based at the Max Planck Digital Library ( MPDL ) in Germany, ESAC focuses on open access author and library workflows, data gathering and analytics, agreement terms, and stakeholder engagement.

Of special interest for many authors are the graphs showing the average article processing charges (APCs) of different academic publishers globally.

By looking at this, we can more easily judge whether the APC at a specific journal of interest is reasonable, or not.
