Open Access Article Processing Charges (OA APC) Longitudinal Study 2016 Dataset
APC data is now available for over 12,000 journals with longitudinal data going back to 2010 for selected journals.
This dataset includes information on OA journals derived from publisher websites and the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). It was developed as the base for a longitudinal study on the open access APC method used by about a third of OA journals. Data gathering and analyses will continue on an ongoing basis and will be published annually. The two most critical elements for matching data and merging datasets are the journal title and ISSN.
