These are NOT FREE APCs. The Library is paying an additional cost for this service. In the case of these publishers, the Read & Publish* deal offered was good enough that it has been decided to fund this new model.

* Read&Publish model = the Read portion of the agreement covers subscription costs, the Publish portion covers APC costs
