Last year they published a grand total of 8 articles with the editorial staff doing the copy-editing, and web work for free. It is nice they are doing this but it isn't indicative of the cost of hosting/peer review/copy-editing more substantial journals.
- a3_nm 8y agoAs for "peer review", this has no cost: reviewers are not paid.
- specialp 8y agoFacilitating peer review does have a cost. You would be surprised how much it takes to find referees that are both qualified to assess the paper and do not have too close of a relationship with the authors. Then there is the whole thing of getting them to file their reports.
