HHMI Expresses Support for Springer Open Choice

October 4th, 2007 by Cathy · No Comments

The Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) has expressed support for Springer’s Open Choice program whereby articles are immediately published with full open access and deposited in repositories such as PubMed Central, at a flat-rate fee per article of $3,000. Under the new policy, HHMI will pay up to $2,000 in open access charges per article with the balance coming from laboratory budgets or other sources. http://www.hhmi.org/news/springer20070927.html
