Article Processing Charge

In order to provide free access to readers, it is a common practice for OA journals to charge Article Processing Charge (APC) to cover the costs of copyediting, typesetting, indexing & archiving, and journal management. RECAP is no exception.

RECAP provides waivers and discounts to authors from low- and middle-income countries, based on the Research4Life country list. Authors from these countries will have APC costs waived (for Group A countries) or reduced by 50% (for Group B countries).

For research with funding support, APCs should be paid to support the operation of the journal. For unfunded work, RECAP offers APC waivers or discounts at the journal’s discretion.

The APC rate is 260 British sterling pounds.
