Nature journals reveal terms of landmark open-access option
The journals will charge authors up to €9,500 to make research papers free to
read, in a long-awaited alternative to subscription-only publishing. ...
This is a good move, in that it makes clear the cost of publishing.
Previously, the cost was hidden in each university library budget.
Authors were imposing costs on all universities by choosing to publish
in expensive journals, without that coming from their budget.
