Publishing Fees and Funding Support
Open Access provides free and immediate online access to the scholarly literature for anyone in the world to read, distribute and reuse. Articles that are accepted for publication following rigorous peer review incur a publishing fee. Please consult the table below for information on Article Processing Charges (APCs):
Article Type | APCs (USD) |
Original Research, Review | $2,080 |
Brief Research Report, Perspective, Commentary | $1,050 |
Editorial* | $500 |
*Please note that the Editorial article type will be discounted to $0 after submission.
Financial support for publishing fees
The journal and the Odessa Centre understands that the ability to pay publishing fees varies considerably. Some accepted papers may be eligible for fee waivers or discounts based on individual merit, at the Editor-in-Chief's discretion.
If you require support for Article Processing Charges, please complete our Fee Support Application form shortly before (in which case an abstract may be requested) or immediately after submitting your manuscript.
Institutional Agreements
The Odessa Centre's collaboration with Frontiers facilitates access to funding for authors at an institutional level. To find out more about whether your institution has an OA agreement with Frontiers (and therefore Pastoralism), please visit the following page: www.frontiersin.org/about/institutional-membership
Authors may also wish to consult their institutional Librarian / OA Officer (or equivalent) for further advice on institutional funding for OA publishing.
