What is What is PubMed CentralPubMed Central (PMC (PMC)

• The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) free digital archive of biomedical and life sciences journal literature.

• All the articles in PMC are free (sometimes on a delayed basis).

• Some journals go beyond free, to Open AccessOpen Access.• If an article is Open AccessOpen Access it means that it can be

freely accessed by anyone in the world using an internet connection.

• Articles available via Open AccessOpen Access are still protected by copyright.

Include PMCID in CitationsInclude PMCID in Citations

Anyone submitting an application, proposal or report to the NIH must include the PMC reference number (PMCID) when citing applicable papers that they author or that arise from their NIH-funded research.

Page 20: NIH Public Access Policy, eRA Commons & My Bbiliography

NIH InstructionsNIH Instructions• BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHBIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH

When citing articles that fall under the Public Access Policy, were authored or co-authored by the applicant and arose from NIH support, provide the NIH Manuscript Submission reference number (e.g., NIHMS97531) or the PubMed Central (PMC) reference number (e.g., PMCID234567) for each article. If the PMCID is not yet available because the Journal submits articles directly to PMC on behalf of their authors, indicate "PMC Journal - In Process." Citations that are not covered by the Public Access Policy, but are publicly available in a free, online format may include URLs or PMCID numbers along with the full reference (note that copies of publicly available publications are not accepted as appendix material.)

• NIH GRANT APPLICATION OR PROGRESS REPORTSThe PMCID/NIHMSID must be included in all papers cited in an NIH grant application and a progress report that fall under the NIH Public Access Policy. That applies to papers authored by you or that arose from your NIH funds even if you are not an author.

By the NumbersBy the Numbers

• A PMIDPMID is a unique identifier in the PubMed database, and does not indicate compliance.

• A PMCIDPMCID is a PubMed Central unique identifier and is used to indicate compliance.

• A NIHMSIDNIHMSID is used for a manuscript which has been submitted but has not yet been assigned a PMCID. It can be used to show compliance for 3 months after publication.

Page 26: NIH Public Access Policy, eRA Commons & My Bbiliography

What is NIHMS?*What is NIHMS?*

• NIHMS is the NIH Manuscript Submission system.• Takes in final peer-reviewed manuscripts covered by

the NIH Public Access Policy and formats them for inclusion in PMC.

• You deposit the files for a final peer-reviewed manuscript (e.g., Microsoft Word document, figures & any supplemental data) into the NIHMS.

• The files are converted to a standard PMC format, and then reviewed by you to confirm that the converted final peer-reviewed manuscript is faithful to the original.

An awardee may demonstrate compliance An awardee may demonstrate compliance with the Public Access Policy by:with the Public Access Policy by:

• Including an NIH Manuscript Submission Reference Number (NIHMSID) in lieu of a PMCID at the end of a full citation.

• The NIHMSID is a temporary substitute for a PMCID.• It is intended to be used only in cases where an

awardee needs to cite a paper soon after its acceptance by a journal, when there is not enough time to complete every step of the NIH manuscript submission process.

• A NIHMSID may be used to indicate compliance with the Public Access Policy for up to three months after a paper is published.

• After three months, a PMCID must be provided in order to indicate compliance.
