ACS Hybrid Journals

Publish open access in any ACS journal

In addition to our range of fully open access journals, authors have the option to publish open access under a Creative Commons license in all ACS journals. Publications which include a combination of subscription access and open access research articles are often referred to as hybrid journals.

If your institutional open access agreement includes publishing support in hybrid journals, your institution should cover up to 100% of immediate open access article publishing charges when your article is accepted for publication.

Authors without access to an institutional OA agreement can also choose to publish as open access in these journals using grant or personal funds. Information about open access pricing for our hybrid journals can be found on our open access pricing page.
