International STM society publisher EDP Sciences has chosen to manage Article Processing Charges (APCs) for its Open Access publications by using the RightsLink® for Open Access platform from Copyright Clearance Center, Inc. (CCC), a global licensing and content solutions organisation.
RightsLink for Open Access streamlines the entire author fee transaction for Open Access charges, page charges, colour charges, and more, giving publishers an author-centric workflow powered by a robust pricing, discount and collections engine. Working with EDP Sciences' manuscript management and production systems through CCC's integration with Aries Systems' Editorial Manager, the platform allows scholarly publishers to collect APCs seamlessly from within the Editorial Manager workflow. This provides EDP Sciences authors an easy-to-use platform for submitting publication charges.
As part of its commitment to education, CCC regularly updates its Open Access Resource Center in collaboration with the Association of Learned and Professional Society Publishers (ALPSP). The Center is a curated set of links to the latest Open Access news, reports, industry whitepapers, webinars and websites.
