APC discount information
Article Processing Charge (APC) discount information
When submitting an article to a journal, in order to make the article open access, there is mostly an expense called an Article Processing Charge (APC). By applying for institutional subscription at Kyushu University, members of the University (faculty / students) can receive discounts on the publication of open access articles in the following journals (as of January 2023).
The library does not compile discounts, so please check the websites of the following journals for details. In addition to these, there are many academic societies with discounts for individual members. For details, check the website of each academic society.
Publisher | Journal Title | Content | Usage / Remarks |
---|---|---|---|
American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) | Science Advances | APC discount of 5% to 15% will be offered depending on the publication results of Science Advances of the institution where the author belongs. |
