Important Information about the NIH Public Access Policy and Your
Manuscript
Under the NIH Public Access Policy, NIH is requiring that its funded
investigators submit to PubMed Central (PMC) all manuscripts accepted after
April 7, 2008, resulting from research supported in whole or in part with
direct costs from NIH.
APS is negotiating with NIH to be able to upload accepted manuscripts
that acknowledge NIH funding for authors. Until we are able to do this,
however, you will need to upload the accepted manuscript yourself. Please
choose the option to make the manuscript free 12 months after publication,
to be in compliance with APS’s copyright policy. This period of time is
consistent with our existing policy to make all content publicly available
through HighWire Press 12 months after print publication.
If you have any questions with respect to the NIH Public Access Policy
and the publication of your article in an APS journal, please contact
Margaret Reich at mreich@the-aps.org.
