AB  - Founded more than 10 years ago, the JOIN² collaboration brings together eight research institutions for the development and operation of a full-fledged shared scholarly publication database and repository based on the Invenio open source framework for large-scale digital libraries. Preferring simplicity to complexity one of our corner stones is to build on well-defined work flows. This enabled JOIN² to extend it's services from representing the scholarly output of the member institutions to serve as the open access repository on site and gradually add additional services. One of these is the management of publication cost data along side the publications within the repository. From the start we headed to model all cost we came across in scholarly publishing, be it open or closed access to further cost transparency. This naturally led JOIN² to be one of the core members of openCost, with DESY representing the collaboration. After a very short introduction who we are the talk focuses on the status of JOIN² as an openCost cost data provider and makes a suggestion how we could imagine to expose our data to other services like OpenAPC. This includes a suggestion for a metadata format as well as the structure on how to expose it for easy automatic aggregation. We outline some open points with regard to a further standardization that will allow also other institutions to adopt this format and the automatic delivery processes involved and that should be addressed during the workshop.
