Canadian Science Publishing (CSP) is Canada's largest publisher of international scientific journals. It started in 1929 as the NRC Research Press, part of the National Research Council (NCR). In 2010, the organization spun off from NRC and was incorporated as a not-for-profit.
As of 2018, CSP has published about 2,300 articles annually in 24 journals distributed to over 125 countries.[1] CSP has 50 staff members, and, according to the website Owler, its annual revenue is about US$3.7M.[2] All of CSP's journals are produced and delivered in both HTML and PDF formats, is connected to scientific literature, included in all major indexes, and archived through both CLOCKSS and Portico.[1]
Open access[]
CSP has an OpenArticle program, which permits authors and/or research funding agencies to sponsor online open access of their article. It also has auto-deposit of accepted manuscripts into the University of Toronto TSpace, a free and secure research repository; and an adoption of a Creative Commons CC BY.[1]
CSP publishes three interdisciplinary open access journals: Arctic Science, a journal that focuses on research about northern polar regions; FACETS, Canada’s first open access multidisciplinary science journal;, and Anthropocene Coasts.
CSP also provides the CSP blog, which includes plain language summaries of featured research. FACETS also publishes plain language summaries.
