Publication charges help cover the cost of publishing and disseminating research results. They should be regarded as an essential part of an author’s research budget. In order to avoid overburdening authors or their supporting institutions AMS uses a hybrid model for most journals where the costs of processing and publishing articles are covered in part by author charges and in part by reader subscriptions.
Check the Read-and-Publish Agreement section below to confirm if your institution has a Read-and-Publish agreement with AMS Publications. Under these agreements, your institution has paid one fee for all publishing costs and subscription access, so you are able to publish with AMS with no further author costs.
