Dear Colleagues,

this is perhaps a good occasion to point out that there are many Fair Open Access (FOA) alternatives to the big publisher(s) that do not charge extremely high fees and prices for their services and products:

https://foasas.org/#journals

The “Fair” in “Fair Open Access” is important because FOA allows people from diverse backgrounds to access as well as contribute to scholarly literature. Since we launched the FOA Initiative three years ago, we have found that scholars are increasingly interested in such alternatives, and many excellent papers have been published in FOA journals since then.

Best regards,
Dominik A. Haas and Vitus Angermeier
