This list is part of the Open Access Directory.

  • This list focuses on publisher policies on NIH-funded authors. It does not attempt to duplicate the much larger SHERPA/RoMEO database. Please annotate entries with a link to the publisher's entry in SHERPA/RoMEO (for example, Springer), for readers who want to see the rest of the publisher's OA policy.
  • Please annotate entries in order to flag, at least, (1) publishers demanding less than a full 12 month embargo, (2) publishers charging authors a fee for the right to comply with the NIH policy, (3) publishers refusing to allow deposit immediately upon acceptance, as the NIH requires, and (4) publishers refusing to publish work by NIH-funded authors.
  • When possible, please quote the language used by the publisher. Authors are particularly interested in knowing how compliance with the NIH will be met.
  • When linking to a long document, please use a deep link or an annotation (with section or page numbers) to point directly to the section on NIH-funded authors.
  • When we couldn't find the overall policy for a publisher, we link to the policy for a notable journal from that publisher, and explain in the annotation that we are doing so. Similarly when a publisher has different policies for different journals, we try to link to the separate policies separately and explain in the annotation that we are doing so.
  • Many of the links currently point to copyright policies or instructions for authors, not directly to policies on NIH-funded authors, and therefore should be understood as starting points. When policies on NIH-funded authors are available, please update the link. When a policy changes, please preserve the content of the older policy on a new page linked to the annotation for historical purposes.
  • To learn the policy of a particular journal, first find the publisher from the journal's web site or Journal Info. Then see whether the publisher policy is on this list.
  • OAD launched this list in August 2008. To the best of our knowledge, no publishers anywhere refuse to publish NIH-funded authors on the grounds of the NIH public-access policy. Every publisher we've examined to date offers some way to accommodate NIH-funded authors, even if the method of accommodation is not expressly stated in the copyright transfer agreement. In the rare cases when the copyright transfer does not expressly accommodate NIH-funded authors, publishers who learn that authors must comply with the NIH policy always offer options to make that compliance possible. Moreover, these options do not require authors to pay publication fees, or other fees, so long as they observe the 12 month embargo period. If we're wrong and have overlooked a publisher refusing to publish NIH-funded authors, or requiring a fee to comply with the NIH policy, please let us know.
