Abstract

Springer presents Springer Open Choice: the program that allows authors of journal articles to pay a basic fee to have their journal article made available to the public. With Springer Open Choice the author decides how he or she wants to be published in the leading and most respected journals in the scientific community. Springer still offers, and recommends, the traditional publishing model as a time-tested way of guaranteeing editorial quality and independence, but now also offers authors the option to pay to have their journal articles made available for free to anyone, anywhere in the world.
