Dryad is a nonprofit organization that provides long-term access to its contents at no cost to users. We are able to provide free access to data due to financial support from members and data submitters. Dryad's Data Publishing Charges (DPCs) are designed to recover the core costs of curating and preserving data.

Waivers are granted for submissions originating from researchers based in countries classified by the <a href="https://datahelpdesk.worldbank.org/knowledgebase/articles/906519-world-bank-country-and-lending-groups">World Bank</a> as low-income or lower-middle-income economies. We are sensitive to the fact that fees for individual researchers can be a burden and create inequities. If you would like to request a fee waiver, please contact <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>.
Fee waivers are automatically granted for submissions originating from researchers based in countries classified by the <a href="https://datahelpdesk.worldbank.org/knowledgebase/articles/906519-world-bank-country-and-lending-groups">World Bank</a> as low-income or lower-middle-income economies. We’re sensitive to the fact that fees for individual researchers are a burden and create inequities. To better accommodate researchers who lack funds to pay the fee for any reason, beyond and including their geographic location, we’ve expanded our waiver policy so that any author may request one by contacting <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>.

The base DPC per data submission is $<%= Stash::Payments::Invoicer.data_processing_charge(identifier: StashEngine::Identifier.last) / 100 %> USD. DPCs are invoiced upon curator approval/publication, unless the submitter is based at a <a href="/stash/our_membership#institutional">member institution</a> (determined by login credentials), an associated journal or publisher has an agreement with Dryad to sponsor the DPC (<a href="/stash/journals">see list</a>) or the submitter is based in a fee-waiver country (see above).
