What is an APC, BPC, or CPC?
Answer
These are all processing charges levied by publishers. The article (APC), book (BPC), or chapter (CPC) processing charges pay for the work to appear fully open access (OA).
The University’s Institutional OA fund can often help with these charges. Contact oapublish@essex.ac.uk if you have any queries.
More details can be found on the Library's open access information pages.
