Delta Think has been studying article processing charges (APCs) applied by a sample of major and significant publishers since 2016. The latest release of their findings show that the highest price point for fully OA journals remains at $8,900. A couple of dozen or so fully OA (“gold”) journals charge above $5,300. The highest price for a hybrid journal is now $11,690, up from $11,390 last year.
