Wellcome Trust APC spend 2012-13: data file

<p>In an attempt to make the debate around the costs of open access publishing more evidence-based, the Wellcome Trust is releasing into the public domain details of its open access spend in the year 2012-2013, as reported by UK institutions and the Trust’s Major Overseas Programmes in receipt of an OA block grant.</p> <p>The data only include information when an APC was levied. If an author has self-archived a paper, or the publisher provides a gold OA service (but makes no charge), this information is not included in this dataset.</p> <p>Equally, data are not included in cases where a researcher (based at an institution not in receipt of an OA block grant) received a supplement to their grant to cover OA publishing costs</p> <p>
