Who Submits
Identifying Submission Methods: Submission to PubMed Central (PMC) depends on the individual who will submit the document.
If the PUBLISHER is submitting the document:
| Method A | Author publishes in a journal that submits all NIH-funded final published articles to PMC; no fee. |
| Method B | Author requests a publisher to submit an individual NIH-funded final published article to PMC (usually for a fee). |
If YOU are submitting the document:
| Method C | Author self-submits the final peer-reviewed manuscript to NIHMS; NIHMS prepares the manuscript for posting to PMC. |
| Method D | Publisher submits the final peer-reviews manuscript to NIHMS on behalf of NIH-funded authors (no fee); NIHMS prepares the manuscript for posting to PMC. |
