    If you publish in a journal that has closed access, there is generally no fee to publish.

    What field are you in? In the life sciences, there’s normally a fee to publish closed-access and a higher one for open-access. My last paper was open access and costed about 3500, compared to 1500 pay walled.

      no fees in closed access in organic chemistry, as far as i know. some other subfields can be different

      open access can be easily two, three grands, and you better have a grant that covers this
