Celebrating our 20th digital anniversary.
نویسنده
چکیده
In 1997, 6 years after the World Wide Web became accessible to the public, the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences launched its website, heralding our entry into the Internet age and the expeditious dissemination of our scientific content worldwide (see Infographic). Toward the end of the last millennium, we redesigned the website to improve user experience and rebranded the journal as PNAS. And in 2015, the journal website received another makeover, offering our varied content in a visually appealing and easily navigable platform. Today, the website receives 50 million hits per month, with readers in more than 184 countries. Over the years, the journal’s digital initiatives have kept pace with the shifting landscape of scientific publishing. Take the US National Library of Medicine’s PubMed Central, which serves as a widely accessed repository of more than 4 million full-text articles in the biomedical sciences from hundreds of participating journals. Beginning in 2000, PNAS was part of a vanguard of journals that began automatically depositing final, published articles in PubMed Central on behalf of authors, promulgating our content for easy access. All PNAS articles posted in PubMed Central are free for public access 6 months after publication.
