NIH Public Access Policy

On January 11, 2008, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) announced a revision to its Public Access Policy. The policy now *requires* eligible researchers to deposit copies of final manuscripts upon acceptance into a peer-reviewed journal so that they may be made publicly available within 12 months of publication.
