PLoS increases author fees

PloS has increased its charges for the first time since its inception in 2003. The fees are increasing so that they more closely reflect the cost of running the journals.

Starting July 1, the fees, which are paid by authors to offset production costs, will increase from $1,500 for PLoS's flagship journals (PLoS Biology and PLoS Medicine) to $2,500, and to $2,000 for its other journals.
