NIH Asks for Internet Access to Studies

Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian

Title:

NIH Asks for Internet Access to Studies (ID: CSD3696)

Author(s):

Maggie Fox (Toshiba America Information Systems)

Origin:

Contributed by Organizations or Campuses (2005)

Type:

Articles, Papers, and Reports

Abstract:

The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) has expressed its support for an open-access model of publishing, at least for research that it funds. The agency called on scientists who receive grants from the NIH to submit their research to PubMed Central, an online database operated by the National Library of Medicine, after such research is published in medical or scientific journals. Elias Zerhouni, director of the NIH, said, "Scientists have a right to see the results of their work disseminated as quickly and broadly as possible, and NIH is committed to helping our scientists exercise this right." Zerhouni said for-profit journals should not be significantly affected by the policy because they only publish a small number of papers on NIH-funded research. Still, he said researchers could request a delay of up to one year after publication before research is made publicly available. According to NIH estimates, in 2003, 60,000 published papers dealt with research the agency funded. In 2004, the NIH distributed $19.3 billion to 212,000 researchers around the world.
