Financing of articles is an important aspect of creating scientific publications. Researchers conducted an analysis of articles with open access status to determine how they are financed. The majority of scientific articles published in 2020 with open access were financed by government and academic grants. Most authors did not pay for the publication themselves, however, the level of funding for articles varies depending on the country and field of knowledge.
Research showed that for most authors, payment for the publication of articles occurs through grants and university funds. This approach allows for the maintenance of the independence and objectivity of the results of scientific research, as funding of articles does not depend on the interests of commercial organizations. Moreover, open access to scientific articles promotes the advancement of ideas and technologies, facilitating the exchange of knowledge and global scientific cooperation.
Thus, financing of articles in scientific publications is an important aspect of ensuring quality and objective information for the scientific community and society. It is essential to support the financing of scientific research from various sources to ensure diversity and independence of scientific outputs.
