The Library\u2019s Open Access Team has published, on behalf of the University, an Article Processing Charges (APCs) expenditure report for 2017.<\/p>\n

During this period, a total of \u00a3208,132.96 was spent on APCs, enabling 171 articles by Queen\u2019s authors to be made open access via the gold route.<\/p>\n

In 2017, Queen\u2019s dramatically reduced its expenditure on APCs published in hybrid journals, with only 33% of APCs (excluding Springer Compact articles) being made Gold via this route. This shift from hybrid to fully open access journals is significant, particularly when compared to Queen\u2019s APC data from 2016.<\/a><\/p>\n

The significant increase in both expenditure and the number of articles published in Pure Gold journals reflects the University\u2019s support for fully open access publishing and the commitment to offer Pure Gold OA to as many of our academics as possible.<\/p>\n
