for All GSA Members

While GSA has delayed its plan to make the journals open access,
all GSA memberships will include free online subscriptions to
Geology beginning in January 2017. Print subscriptions will continue
to be available for a fee.

In the meantime, GSA will continue its hybrid open access
approach, which includes gold (author pays) immediate open access
or 12-month green (repository) open access. For more information
on publishing options and costs, visit http://www.geosociety.org/
pubs/contrib.htm.

To browse a list of open access articles and book chapters, visit
www.gsapubs.org/cgi/collection/gsa-oa. In addition, GSA Today,
book front matter, and all Geology Research Focus, comment, and
reply articles will continue to be freely accessible.

If you are interested in supporting GSA’s transition to open access,
please contact the GSA Foundation (gsafweb.org) to learn more
