Paleonet: More free access to Archiv für Molluskenkunde!

[John Hutchinson]

*Archiv für Molluskenkunde* is an international, ISI-ranked journal
publishing in English and the oldest mollusc journal still in existence.
About 12% of recent articles concern fossil molluscs from the Cenozoic. *To
mark our 150th volume, and to encourage more submissions, we have taken 3
steps to make the journal more accessible.*

1) Articles will now become *free to download after 4 years*. Currently,
almost all articles published 2006–2017 are available for free, but we hope
to extend that further back.
2) We offer authors the *option to make an article open access immediately*
upon publication. The charge is €1500 for up to 30 printed pages; please
ask for a quotation for longer articles.
3) Additionally, one article per issue will be chosen by the editors to be
free to download until the next issue appears.

*Please also consider subscribing.* This costs €68 per year for two issues.
Alternatively, by joining the Deutsche Malakozoologische Gesellschaft (the
German Malacological Society) you can receive Archiv at a reduced rate, and
also receive their Mitteilungen (another high-quality journal).
