Following successful sign in, you will be returned to Oxford Academic. The whole system, as Berkeley professor Mike Eisen explained in a recent interview in Science, was built for the printing press. When journals had to print everything on paper and ship the journals to libraries around the world, it kind of made sense. Their editors typically review submitted manuscripts at no cost to authors, and those that charge publication fees collect them only after the journals accept the papers. They were providing a valuable service for science, and it does cost money to print and deliver all those journals. Not content with their enormous profits, it now seems that Springer Nature wants to suck even more money out of academic science. $11,500 is more than scientists earn in a year in some countries, as Forbes blogger Madhukar Pai pointed out. That leads to multiple rounds of peer reviews of the same paper, placing a burden on the scientists who volunteer as unpaid outside reviewers, and the editors who arrange the reviews. If we've learned anything from the COVID-19 pandemic, it's that we cannot wait for a crisis to respond. Click the account icon in the top right to: Oxford Academic is home to a wide variety of products. (When I explain this to non-scientists, they are often flabbergasted.) Journals then publish the papers behind a paywall and charge fees to anyone who wants to read them. We scientists love to publish papers, and we get especially excited when our papers appear in top journals. But the Nature Research publishing group says it is necessary to cover the costs of the full-time editors and others who produce Nature and its 32 other primary research journals. Some societies use Oxford Academic personal accounts to provide access to their members. Authors would pay an additional 2600 if the paper is accepted by one of the four journals with "Nature" in the title; the total fee would be roughly half of Nature publishing's top open-access charge. Science and AAAS are working tirelessly to provide credible, evidence-based information on the latest scientific research and policy, with extensive free coverage of the pandemic. Consider: a typical science paper describes experiments that cost tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars, most of which comes from government grants (the most common source of funding) or from private foundations. Such open-access arrangements are being required by some European funders and foundations that seek to eliminate subscription paywalls in order to speed the flow of scientific information. Springer and the other for-profit journals have been fighting open access since the mid-2000s, and this latest announcement is yet one more salvo in their battle against it. But once a Nature title converts to all open access, authors will lose that no-fee publishing option. Some institutions may end up paying the fees for their authors from a dedicated pot or through a deal with the publisher that allows their scientists to both read journals and publish open-access papers in them. Some analysts say charging authors for peer reviewan approach known as "submission fees" could reduce the burden by forcing authors to be more selective and realistic. Access to content on Oxford Academic is often provided through institutional subscriptions and purchases. If Nature is going to treat scientists like suckers, its time we stopped playing along.

Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own. The Lancet, which has a higher journal impact factor than Nature, charges an open-access publishing fee of $5000. If the paper passes that minimum bar, authors who want open access then must pay a 2190 "editorial assessment charge" to cover review costs. But these deals "take time for institutions to put in place and are not suitable for all organizations," said Alison Mitchell, chief journals officer at Springer Nature. The Nature group also announced a trial of a lower cost open-access option: when authors submit a manuscript to one of three journalsNature Genetics, Nature Methods, and Nature Physicsthey could pay 4790 or less per paper for open access, if they agree to participate in a process called "guided review." Society member access to a journal is achieved in one of the following ways: Many societies offer single sign-on between the society website and Oxford Academic. But many journals have panned the idea, worrying it could drive authors to journals that don't charge such fees. Lets back up a minute and look at how the academic publishing system works. Springer Nature has a policy waiving publishing fees for authors who can demonstrate a financial need for its journals that publish all content open access. Choose this option to get remote access when outside your institution. Ive already done that once, and I plan to continue until they drop this idea. Research published in Nature and the Nature research journals is downloaded over 30 times more than papers in a typical journal, they write. Will Amazons Foray Into The Primary Care Market Be A Wake-Up Call Or A Torpedo For Legacy Health Systems? For over two decades, though, we have been distributing papers electronically, and theres almost no need for paper copies. So the Nature group decided to offer the option to all authors now. This is outrageous. A Cooling, Implantable Device For Pain Relief. After Plan S was proposed in September 2018, some authors decried it as limiting academic freedom and opportunities for professional advancement, in part because the policy was expected to bar publication in Nature and other selective journals that did not offer open-access options.
