Open Access Deposit (Green): 

  • Horizon 2020:  Satisfies Horizon 2020 requirements:  "All PNAS articles are free to read within 6 months of publication, without a subscription, and PNAS automatically deposits the version of record in PubMed Central for the authors."
  • Horizon Europe: The Library believes that it will cost $2,200 to satisfy Horizon Europe requirements. There will be no charge for OA, but there will be a $2,200 charge for the required CC-BY license.
    • "PNAS permits Plan S-funded authors to comply with their funder mandates through green open access. Authors may self-archive their accepted author manuscripts with zero embargo and may apply the CC BY license for their author manuscript, if they choose the same license for their PNAS paper. Further, PNAS automatically deposits the version of record in PubMed Central on behalf of the authors."
    • "For volumes 106–present (2009–present), except for open access articles submitted beginning September 2017, the author(s) retains copyright to individual articles."
