...In response to author feedback, pricing will change from a per page rate to a per article rate.
With article based pricing, the author will know - from initial submission - what the price will be, rather than having to wait for the article to be paginated....
There are now two article rates:
Full research articles and reviews are priced at £2,600 ($4,420).
Shorter format articles are priced at the lower rate of £1,500 ($2,550).
The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
