[Beowulf] [EXTERNAL] Re: First cluster in 20 years - questions about today

[Lux, Jim (US 337K)]

Many journals have "suggested page charges" of several hundred $/page.  However, virtually all of the reputable ones will waive the page charge if you ask, that's how I published when I was in high school.  The "vanity press" will not, since that's how they make their money.

    Hi Gerald
    
    that is not correct. You only have to pay for it if you are going for open 
    access. If you are not, then you do not have to pay for it. At least that is 
    the case in Chemistry as else I would not be able to publish my work in highly 
    rated journals. I guess other subjects have similar arrangements.
    
    All the best
