Abstract:
It appears that open access (OA) academic publishing is better for science because it
provides frictionless access to make significant advancements in knowledge. OA also benefits
individual researchers by providing the widest possible audience and concomitant increased citation
rates. OA publishing rates are growing fast as increasing numbers of funders demand it and is
currently dominated by gold OA (authors pay article processing charges (APCs)). Academics with
limited financial resources perceive they must choose between publishing behind pay walls or using
research funds for OA publishing. Worse, many new OA journals with low APCs did not have impact
factors, which reduces OA selection for tenure track professors. Such unpleasant choices may be
dissolving. This article provides analysis with a free and open source python script to collate all
journals with impact factors with the now more than 12,000 OA journals that are truly platinum OA
(neither the author nor the readers pay for the peer-reviewed work). The results found platinum OA is
growing faster than both academic publishing and OA publishing. There are now over
350 platinum
OA journals with impact factors over a wide variety of academic disciplines, giving most academics
options for OA with no APCs.

1. Introduction
Academic publishing has been historically dominated by a handful of major publishers
(Elsevier, Black & Wiley, Taylor & Francis, Springer Nature and SAGE), using subscription-
based business models. Academic authors would provide content (e.g., articles, reviews,
comments), peer-review, and often editing for free and then would pay to read typeset
articles on an individual basis or part of a subscription often purchased by their institutional
libraries. This model has two primary drawbacks. First, scientific progress is slowed by
restricting access to copyrighted scientific literature behind paywalls [
1
,
2
]. This has divided
scientists into those that can pay for access to the literature and those that cannot (often
these are academics in the developing world) [
3
]. Second, the de facto monopolies set
up by the handful of publishers of scientific peer-reviewed literature [
4
], driven by what
some [
5
,
6
] termed excessive needs for profits [
7
,
8
] (e.g., Elsevier earned over 37%) [
9
],
raised prices to the point that even the wealthy well-endowed Harvard University was
challenged to pay for all of it [10].
One approach to solve this problem is the open access (OA) movement, which hopes
to enable all academic literature to be freely accessible to everyone [
11
]. First, a handful
of tiny OA publishers were derided and grouped together as ‘predatory publishers’ by
representatives of the subscription-based academic publishing industry. While predatory
publishers continue to try to exploit academics by charging authors publication fees with
only a precursory (or no) check for quality [
12
], there is an unmistakable rise of legitimate
OA publishing as it now makes up nearly a third of the peer-reviewed literature [
13
]. The
Knowledge 2022,2, 209–224. https://doi.org/10.3390/knowledge2020013 https://www.mdpi.com/journal/knowledge
Knowledge 2022,2210
trend is clear that in the not-so-distant future [
4
] the peer-reviewed literature could be
universally accessible to everyone [
14
,
15
] as many academics are calling for it [
16
]. The
benefits of open access at any scale are well established in the literature and come in two
main categories. First, OA publishing is a benefit to all of science as it provides a means of
reviewing and accessing to relevant literature [
17
,
18
] for making significant advancements
in knowledge [
19
,
20
]. Thus, OA increases both efficiency and effectiveness of science
as a whole [
21
]. Second, from an individual academic’s point of view OA provides the
pragmatic advantage of enabling the widest possible audience of their work by making it
freely and easily on the Internet [
4
]. Most academics have eschewed greater financial wealth
they could obtain in industry instead competing for prestige. The prestige is often governed
by citations of their work and although contested before there is now no question that OA
drives increased citation rates [
22
–
26
]. The data has become overwhelming that OA brings
academics greater readership and citations, and the ethical case of OA all publicly funded
research has become impossible to ignore. Poynder summarizes the academic publishing
as whole: “
. . .
it is no longer rational, or even necessary, for subscription paywalls to be
built between researchers and research.” [27].
Funders have begun to demand OA [
28
] for these reasons, particularly public funders
of science [
2
,
29
]. It is hard to argue that if the public funds research, they should have to pay
a second time to read it. Simultaneously, over 850 universities and research organizations,
have also mandated that researchers share their work open access [
28
]. This in itself has
caused challenges for academics, which believe they are being forced to pay exorbitant
author processing fees (APCs) [
30
] to either OA publishers or hybrid OA publishers
(conventional journals that normally publish on the subscription model but charge an APC
to make the same article OA). High APC values can be particularly damaging for some
disciplines that are less well funded such as the humanities and social sciences (as compared
to physical and medical sciences or engineering). Although academics have the green OA
model (where they self-archive by uploading preprints or accepted versions of their papers
into institutional repositories [
31
]) this can be complex to navigate because publishers have
different rules and it is time consuming. Substantial APCs, reinforce the wealth-gap in
academia—where academics are literally paying to publish. Wealthier universities can for
example, pay for discounts or fund APCs for OA for their faculty members [
32
]. Diamond
or platinum OA journals, where no APC is paid for OA are few, new and unknown to
most academics [
33
]. The advantages and disadvantages of the various journal types are
summarized in Table 1.

Perceived lack of options for
impact factor
Conventional publishers still have control of this situation, largely because it is per-
ceived that they have monopoly on high impact factor journals [
30
,
33
]. Impact factor is
a metric of an academic journal that is the yearly mean number of citations of articles
Knowledge 2022,2211
published in the last two years in a given journal, as indexed by Clarivate’s Web of Science.
There are several reasons that the value of using impact factors has been contested includ-
ing: (i) using journal impact factors conceals the difference in article citation rates, (ii) they
are determined by technicalities unrelated to the scientific quality, (iii) they are research
field dependent, and (iv) they can be manipulated [
34
]. Despite these issues [
34
], impact
factors are used a prestige metric for academics [
35
]. Academics are widely concerned [
36
]
that because publication in high-impact factor journals is important for demonstrating
expertise for grants, tenure, and promotion and many open access journals (because they
are in general newer carry lower impact factor scores) that requiring open access would be
onerous [30,33].
A few years ago, academics simply had no choice: they could either publish in a journal
with an impact factor or publish OA. Now they can publish in an impact factor journal in
the hybrid model or in a growing list of gold OA journals with impact factors, but they
have to pay APCs, while diverting funds from research activities (e.g., researcher salaries,
supplies, etc.). This may, however, be changing. The Directory of Open Access Journals
lists over 17,300 journals that offer a means of OA and over 12,250 have no APCs [37]. Do
any of these journals have impact factors? The aim of this study is to answer that question.
This short note summarizes the results of using an open source python script to collate all
journals with impact factors with journals that are truly platinum OA—e.g., neither the
author nor the readers pay for the peer-reviewed work. The results are discussed in the
context of OA academic publishing and steps needed to minimize the cost to science from
the academic publishing process.
2. Materials and Methods
First, the impact factor (IF) list of 2020 provided by the Journal Citation Report (JCR),
which contains over 12,000 journals was acquired [38]. The IF is calculated as:
IF 2020 =Citations in 2019 +Citations in 2018
Papers Published in 2019 +Papers Published in 2018 (1)
Similarly, the IF data for 2021 was acquired from [
39
]. Next, the Directory of Open
Access Journal (DOAJ) data was acquired for OA journals [
40
]. A free and open source
python script was deployed that uses Pandas [
41
] to take two csv files (one for IF and one
for OA) and match them based off of a set of categories. It first takes in a set of data that
includes journal IF categories in [
38
]. It then takes in a set of data from the DOAJ [
40
] that
includes information about each journal including if it has APCs and fits a criterion for
open access. The script then takes this file and filters out only the records that have no APC
and are OA. Finally, it retrieves all records from the IF list that are also in the new reduced
DOAJ list and writes them out to a file. The results of this file are evaluated manually to
remove repeats and errors.
The python script under GNU General Public License v3.0 [
42
], input csv files, and
the most recent update of the output.txt with new data are provided open access and at:
https://osf.io/mh4bx/ (accessed on 22 January 2022).
3. Results
The results of running the script for 2020 impact factors is shown in Table A1 in the
Appendix A. As can be seen in Table A1, in 2020 there was 139 peer-reviewed OA journals
with impact factors above 1.69 in a wide range of fields ranging from the 24th highest
impact factor of all journals in Living Reviews of Relativity to the highly timely journals
such as Emerging Infectious Diseases. The results of running the script for 2021 impact
factors is shown in Table A2 in the Appendix A. As can be seen by Table A2, there are now
358 platinum OA journals with impact factors.
Based on the results of Table A1, roughly 1% of impact factor journals are platinum
OA in 2020. This value should be treated as conservative as the input data for 2020 only
included journals IF > 1.69. As can be seen by Table A2, there are now 358 platinum OA
Knowledge 2022,2212
journals with impact factors (2.9% of the total journals tracked for IF). Of these, 188 with
impact factors above 1.69. This represents an increase of 90% for platinum OA journals
with IF > 1.69 in a single year. The number of double-digit impact factor platinum OA
journals increased from 5 to 7 between 2020 and 2021, which is a 40% increase. Similarly,
the number of platinum OA journals with IF > 2 increased from 111 to 164, which is a
47% increase. It is clear that academics are increasingly choosing to publish in platinum
OA journals. It can be presumed that these journals are being preferentially selected to
conserve research funds to do research, but future work is needed to verify this.
4. Discussion
The results of this analysis must be treated with care. First, the outputs of the script
can have errors due to the input. So, for example, the journal Area, was listed as OA in
the 2020 and 2021 data sets, but on inspection of the current author page it is now a gold
OA journal. This is likely due to the common practice of gold OA journals operating with
zero APC in the beginning to become established. This normally continues until they gain
an IF at which time either APC waivers are eliminated or markedly reduced or APCs are
instituted. This could be the case for other journals in this analysis being mischaracterized
as platinum OA as well. Authors aiming to publish in platinum OA journals should check
the validity of the data in the DOAJ carefully themselves when selecting journals. Despite
this caveat, there appears to be a clear trend of an increasing IF for platinum OA and their
overall numbers and these trends are more rapid than the increase in publications overall
(~4%/year [43]) and of the transition to OA (35% searchable by DOAJ [44]) as a whole.
Currently with platinum OA journals with impact factors making up only about 3%
of platinum OA journals, they do not currently represent a major threat to conventional
subscription or pure gold OA publishers. If growth rates of >40–90% continue in the IF
of existing platinum OA and of the number of platinum OA, this may change rapidly.
The conflict between subscription + green OA, hybrid OA and gold OA (APCs) is not yet
resolved [
45
]. Platinum OA journals do not necessarily have the same negative incentives
that for-profit journals have to drive up sales. It should be noted that many of the platinum
OA journals in Tables A1 and A2 are published by for-profit academic publishers that are
subsidized by either non-profit entities or governments. Thus, the profit incentive still
exists as do concerns about the consequences of it.
In some ways, the profit seeking of academic publishers, previously visible only to
university librarians negotiating subscription contracts, has become more visible to all aca-
demics. Furthermore, the often-shocking APC charges (e.g., Nature Communications charges
US$5,790 per article) [
46
]), recent profit-maximizing practices include: (1) conventional
publishers rejecting articles at subscription journals while offering convenient ‘transfer
services’ to ‘companion’ journals that charge APCs, (2) OA publishers that offer APC
discounts, similarly rejecting papers to cancel waivers, while encouraging resubmission
and (3) accepting lower quality papers using any OA business model to drive up APC
profit. Such practices will likely continue to disappoint academics and accelerate their
selection of platinum OA now that the results of this analysis show there are platinum
OA with IFs. This again will likely put economic pressure on the current business models
of scientific publishers. Such pressure is similar to the illegal ‘black OA’ offered by Sci-
Hub [
47
]. Widespread platinum OA would provide a legal means to provide the same level
of access to the peer-reviewed literature, but far more must be carried out to make scholars
aware of it [48].
For this to occur there remains some technical hurdles. Although writing, reviewing
and content editing are generally provided by academics as part of their service to the sci-
entific community, academic publishers still provide publishing services such as electronic
architecture for the journals, archiving, copy editing and type setting. The first two of these
services has been developed as free and open source software by the Public Knowledge
Project in the Open Journal Systems (OJS) [
49
] and the ubiquitous low-cost internet archiv-
ing available that enable open access repositories [
50
]. Over 25,000 journals already use
Knowledge 2022,2213
OJS worldwide [
49
]. Some journals, both subscription and OA, use templates to assist in
type setting such as MDPI or the IEEE, which provided both Word and LaTeX templates.
How these templates are used differs by journal and publisher. For example, MDPI, a gold
OA publisher, normally copy edits templated articles and fixes author mistakes, while at
least for some IEEE publications (which are normally subscription based although some
gold OA) only add a copyright notice to templated articles before publication. For the
costs of publishing to be reduced for all OA models an easy-to-use method for authors is
needed to make typeset articles. Templates can be effective, but can also be ‘broken’ by
authors, and markup of various kinds is harder to use than WYSIWYG editors such as
Libre Office or Word. LaTeX, for example, normally demands a steep learning curve, but
Overleaf, which is an open-source online real-time collaborative LaTeX editor [
51
], may
offer a solution although more work is still needed to make it seamless for authors. There
is an opportunity to do this with artificial intelligence (AI). Although many academics
are good writers, copy editing remains an important service provided by academic pub-
lishers [
52
]. Efforts to provide copy editing using AI is already underway (e.g., Wordvice
AI [
53
], Katalyst Tech. [
54
], or AuthorONE from Enago [
55
]) and may represent the last
technical hurdle in a completely open source and zero cost method (ignoring the current
free services provided by the academic community itself for writing, editing and reviewing
manuscripts) of providing universal platinum OA to new articles. Finally, to automate the
collection of legal preprints open source programs are needed to provide that same level of
access to all pat work [56].
5. Conclusions
The results of this analysis show currently platinum OA journals with impact factors
represent roughly 3% of all platinum OA journals. For many academics, this fact alone
may be surprising as historically there were no OA journals with impact factors and more
recently all of the OA that did have impact factors came only with large APCs. This resolves
one of the major equity issues in academia (i.e., wealthy academics could afford APCs to
enable their work to be read by others and still publish in journals with impact factors for
tenure, while less well-endowed researchers were not able to share their work as readily or
had to give up the prestige of publishing in IF journals). Now, faculty no longer need to
choose between two sub-optimal situations, they can share their work with everyone and
still publish in journals with IFs.
The results also show that platinum OA journals with impact factors are growing both
in number and impact factor values faster than both academic publishing as a whole and
the extremely fast growth in OA publishing. Specifically, in a single year the platinum
OA journals with IF > 1.69 increased 90%, the number of platinum OA journals with
IF > 2
increased 47%, and the number of double-digit impact factor platinum OA journals
increased by 40%. This means that over time most of the literature can be expected to be
OA as has been hypothesized by several researchers previously, but also that much of the
OA literature will continue to shift to platinum OA. Based on the limited data set here
it appears that in the foreseeable future these trends will continue. The growth in OA is
being fueled by what is in the best interest of both authors and readers and the growth in
platinum OA is being fueled by the limited resources of the authors. Both of these trends
benefit knowledge sharing because platinum OA journals provide literature to the entire
public for free without directly reducing researcher funds (and thus hampering research
in other areas). This would be expected to increase the rate of discovery and thus help
accelerate scientific progress in general. In addition, this growth in IF platinum OA journals
can be viewed as positive for knowledge quality because although the value of impact
factors are contested, they still provide some litmus test that the quality of the literature is
being preserved if other academics find it useful enough to cite.
With there being a relatively broad selection of platinum OA journals to select from
and the last remaining major barrier to their use (having an impact factor and thus being
useful for the tenure and promotion process) being removed many more academics will be
Knowledge 2022,2214
able to move to OA, particularly those from non-wealthy labs. It can thus be concluded,
that conventional subscription, hybrid and new OA-pure academic publishers will need to
adapt their business models to compete with this disruptive innovation of platinum OA
with IF, while still maintaining sustainability. Substantial future work is available in this
area for academic publishers to adapt and flourish just as other sectors have needed to
adapt when open source methodologies became common (e.g., with free and open source
software now making up a major portion of the software industry).
