After Manuscript Acceptance or Article Publication
QuestionsPublisher policies and services relative to PubMed Central and open access deposit vary widely. Library staff are carefully tracking publisher responses to these requirements. We can deposit your manuscripts into PubMed Central and our Center's own institutional repository. This will save you time and provide widespread open access and thus more readers to your paper.
- Some journal publishers will deposit your final peer-reviewed manuscript or published article into PubMed Central for you, at no additional fee. See the list of journals that are automatically submitted to PubMed Central (no need for author/PI to review in NIHMS).
- Other journals/publishers will allow you (or your library) to deposit the final peer-reviewed manuscript into PubMed Central but will NOT participate in the process. Check with library staff via authors@fhcrc.org. to find out what your journal's practices are.
- Yet other publishers will deposit your paper into PubMed Central for you, but will require you to perform review and approval via the NIHMS system.
- Let library staff submit your manuscript to PubMed Central for you. Fill out this simple, one-page form and upload your final peer-reviewed manuscript, and any associated image or supplemental data files. We will submit it to PubMed Central and when it's ready, the NIH Manuscript Submission System (NIHMS) will contact the submitting author to review it for accuracy.
- Alternatively, you may submit your own final peer-reviewed manuscripts to PubMed Central via the NIHMS system. If you choose to self-submit, library staff would be grateful if you would also send along a copy of your manuscript to us via the form or email authors@fhcrc.org and let us know that it has already been submitted to PubMed Central. This will help us track institutional compliance with the NIH Public Access Policy and allow create an entry for your paper in the Center's own institutional repository.
