My study was funded by NIH and I have to submit my accepted article to PubMed Central. How do I do this?

There are two options:

  1. If you opt for Springer's Open Choice program ($3,000 USD) then Springer will immediately deposit the final published article in PubMed Central where it will be available immediately. For further information see Springer's NIH Compliance Policy
  2. If you do not wish to pay for Open Choice then you must submit your article to PubMed Central yourself - see http://publicaccess.nih.gov/submit_process.htm for instructions. You can submit your final author's version to PubMed Central immediately upon publication, but it will only be made publicly available 12 months after publication. Please note that the publisher's pdf version cannot be deposited on PubMed Central. For further information see Springer's NIH Compliance Policy

How do I make my Wellcome Trust-funded study publicly available?

My study was funded by Wellcome Trust. The Trust requires papers to be made available on PubMed Central as soon as possible after publication, and certainly within six months of the publication date. How do I do this?

Please select Springer's Open Choice program ($3,000 USD) then Springer will immediately deposit the final published article in PubMed Central where it will be available immediately. For further information see Springer's Wellcome Trust Compliance Policy. The cost of having your article published with open access is covered by the Wellcome Trust. Please see the Wellcome Trust's Authors' Guide for details.
