Hi Hannah,

Interesting question. I wonder if we could have a chat about over the phone as I am a little concerned that the journals you mention might be "predatory journals". I'd also be interested to find out which journals you are talking about. Elsevier, in most cases, does not charge these so called "fees" but does charge APCs. As far as I'm aware Elsevier does not charge for submission only and therefore my worry is that these might be journals might be predatory.

Kind regards

Subject: [lis-e-resources] Journal submission fees

*** External email: use caution ***



Hello all

At University of Portsmouth Library we have recently had a number of queries from academics about journal submission fees - not APC payments, but fees just to submit their papers and have them peer reviewed. Does anyone know if there is an online list of journal which charge these fees, either as a whole or publisher specific? I hadn't heard of these fees before, and so far we have only identified a few journal titles which charge this (mostly Elsevier titles so far), but we have been asked if it is possible to provide details of which journals will ask for submission fees, to go alongside the page on our website outlining our current APC offers and deals.

Thank you in advance

Hannah
