Is there a charge to publish papers in the print journals?
We request payment of a publication charge of $875 per full-length paper, $375 per Note, and $275 per Comment. Although payment is voluntary, the solvency of the journals depends upon it. An author’s organization is expected to pay the charge unless it is absolutely unable to do so. Payment is authorized as a cost item in Government contracts under a policy ruling by the Federal Council of Science and Technology. The policy recognizes that research results frequently are published in journals that do not carry advertising and are published by nonprofit organizations.
