Would you continue to submit articles to OCL if the journal charged a submission fee of, for example, $100 ? [Set at $100, this fee would serve simply to discourage speculative submissions; the editorial costs of handing each submission would remain heavily subsidized by the journal’s institutional partners. There would continue to be no publication fee.]
