Why isn't my article in PMC?

Created by Sophie Haslam, Modified on Tue, 17 Sep, 2024 at 5:40 AM by Sophie Haslam

Springer Nature does not deposit subscription articles to PubMed Central (even if the article has NIH funding or the journal is Medline indexed). Authors must self archive using NIHMS.


Springer Nature only deposits Open Access articles published to an issue (not online first) to PubMed Central:

-  if the journal is fully indexed in PMC 

- or the Open Access article has NIH funding or the funder is on this list
