Steps for Complying with the NIH Public Access Policy of 2008

Effective April 7, 2008 for all Active Grants

There are four actions an NIH funded author needs to take when publishing an article:

  • Send a cover letter about the NIH policy when you submit an article
  • Sign and attach the MIT amendment to the publisher copyright agreement
  • Ensure that your final, peer-reviewed manuscript is submitted to PubMed Central (PMC) and that you have the PMC reference number for the article.
  • Retain copies of all amended copyright transfer agreements and all final peer-reviewed manuscripts.

Read more details about each of these steps (MIT only)

Read more about the NIH Public Access Policy of 2008 on the MIT Libraries' Scholarly Publication web site.
