Interestingly, the data we have collected shows that, for OASPA members, the year-on-year growth remains steady for CC BY articles in fully open access peer-reviewed journals. From 2011 to 2012 the total growth was very high, jumping by around 50%. Comparing 2013 to 2012, growth had slowed to about 33%, but in the four years since then it has stabilised at an increase of roughly 14-15% per year.
Approximately 85% of the articles published by OASPA members as CC BY last year in OA journals can be attributed to just 6 publishers: Springer Nature (36%), PLOS (14%), MDPI (12%), Hindawi (10%), Frontiers (8%) and Copernicus (5%).
