Some remarks:
20
- Societies were selected subjectively, partly based on prominence in the field, suggestions by others, and mention/involvement in online discussions on Plan S.
21
- It is acknowledged that the current selection of societies is heavily skewed towards Western (mostly UK/US) societies.
22
- Information was extracted from financial statements as carefully as possible, but no claims are made as to the completeness or accuracy of the information presented here.
23
- [added] It is acknowledged that organizations may differ in the way they organize and allocate cost across multiple programs or activities; the data is as reported in the financial statements
24
- Suggestions for societies/associations to add are always welcome, as are corrections to the data collected for each society. Please add these as comments, in column Y, or as new rows.
25
26
Collection of these data was made possible by the fact that (non-profit) societies/associations are required to make their financial statements public.
27
It would be great to be able to collect similar information from for-profit publishers as well.

29
Information was initially collected in November-December 2018 and publicly shared on Dec 29, 2018; more information will continue to be added.
