Free APCs in APA journals

open box

Kent is now participating in JISC’s American Psychological Association OA Publishing Pilot for articles accepted for publication between 1 August 2022 – 31 July 2023

This means that you can publish Open Access in 88 APA hybrid journals without having to apply separately for Open Access Article Processing Charge (APC) funding.

You need to

  • be the corresponding author
  • affiliate as Kent and use a Kent email address from the beginning
  • use a CC BY licence to publish

Details of all our Read and Publish Agreements are on this Read and Publish agreement webpage

Try this Read and Publish journal search that allows you to search by journal title to see which titles are covered by our Kent agreements.  You can also search this list by keywords.

This APA agreement is a one-off publishing pilot and not a full Read and Publish agreement. We continue to subscribe to the PsychInfo “read” element as a separate payment. JISC’s aim is to combine the Read and Publish elements into the next agreement for 2024 onwards.

A UK-wide cap of 354 articles has been set for the sector.
