APCs increase for papers submitted after March 1, 2023
For manuscripts submitted on or after March 1, 2023, publication fees (APC) will be $1600 (note the pricing currency is now USD rather than GBP). This APC covers increased publication fees charged by our publisher, salaries/support for our Managing Editor and social media staff, and nominal compensation for editors including the Editor-in-Chief. In line with the values of the CSA, the Journal goals are to publish high-quality articles on the theory and practice of citizen science, be self-sustaining, advance inclusion across our field, and provide a cost-efficient and open-access publication opportunity at a rate below other journals.
