A growing number of funding agencies now require that research articles they have funded must be made Open Access. This may be either by mandating deposit in repositories after an embargo period or by stipulating that research is published as Open Access.

Publishing in JAD complies with all major funding agency requirements.

Green Open Access Publishing in JAD (Self-Archiving)

Authors may self-archive and post the final manuscript version on their own institution, company or funding agency repositories immediately upon acceptance. Alternatively, the author can submit the final published PDF version of the article, which can be ordered from IOS Press. This service costs €150/US$170 and an order form will be sent with the galley proof of the article to the corresponding author. Ordered PDFs will be sent to the author after final publication of the article in an issue. IOS Press holds to no embargo period after final publication. Orders for a PDF of published articles can also be sent to order@iospress.nl.

Authors that are funded by the NIH, Research Councils UK (RCUK) and Wellcome Trust are welcome to deposit their final manuscript version to PubMed Central (Submission Method C) and Europe PubMed Central immediately upon acceptance. In all cases, a publication reference and URL to the journal’s website must be provided on the first page of the manuscript.
