<Apologies for cross posting> The latest in the series on Payment for Publication from the Australian Open Access Support Group (AOASG) has gone live today.
The membership model http://aoasg.org.au/the-membership-model-2/ explores the different options publishers are offering in the form of discounts on article processing charges. These range from the well established model of membership to an open access publisher, through to some membership options now offered for hybrid publishing. Membership to open access repositories, and the ways learned societies are offering discounts are explored. The page looks at potential issues with these membership options and discusses some ways publishers are addressing double dipping by tying discounts to article processing charges to subscriptions. This page is part of the Payment for Publication http://aoasg.org.au/paying-for-publication/ series which also includes: 'Cost of Hybrid' - http://aoasg.org.au/cost-of-hybrid/ 'Addressing the double dipping charge' - http://aoasg.org.au/addressing-the-double-dipping-charge/ 'Do OA funds support hybrid?' - http://aoasg.org.au/funding-hybrid/ 'Not all hybrid is equal' - http://aoasg.org.au/not-all-hybrid-is-equal/ Regards Danny Dr Danny Kingsley Executive Officer Australian Open Access Support Group e: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> p: +612 6125 6839 w: www.aoasg.org.au t: @openaccess_oz
