    We wanted to submit a manuscript to a journal but realized it had a staggeringly high "article processing charge" (APC). Our university has an agreement with the publisher, meaning there will be no charge for us. Would this make you more or less likely to submit there? #AcademicPublishing #AcademicChatter

      @satrevik Interesting take on the 'where-to-publish' problem... I've had many discussions with my colleagues about where should one publish and _that_ was never an issue (as long as one can pay for that) - it's always about the damn IF or another measure of how much prestige one can get from having a publication there...

        @jromanowska Luckily I don't have to worry about IF, and it hasn't been much discussed in our group or department (although some journals definitely are seen as higher prestige). The NPI / NVA levels 0/1/2 are more relevant, but I feel that even the 1/2 distinction is less emphasized lately.
