Our publishing models | nature catalysis

As part of the ongoing changes in scientific publishing, which aim to increase the readership, reach and impact of published research, many journals are moving from a traditional,

subscription-based publishing model to an OPEN ACCESS (OA) MODEL. Under the OA model, an article is made freely available online when published, rather than being behind a paywall. Payment

for publication is made by the authors’ institutions or funding bodies, who pay an Article Processing Charge (APC) when the research is accepted. FROM JANUARY 2021, AUTHORS SUBMITTING

PRIMARY RESEARCH ARTICLES* TO _NATURE CATALYSIS_  WILL BE ABLE TO CHOOSE TO PUBLISH THEIR WORK USING EITHER THE TRADITIONAL PUBLISHING ROUTE OR OPEN ACCESS. *NON-PRIMARY RESEARCH (E.G.

REVIEWS, COMMENTS, NEWS & VIEWS) IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR OPEN ACCESS AND IS ONLY PUBLISHED USING THE TRADITIONAL PUBLISHING ROUTE. Find out more about publishing in _Nature Catalysis_

AUTHORS MAY NEED TO TAKE SPECIFIC ACTIONS TO ACHIEVE COMPLIANCE WITH FUNDER AND INSTITUTIONAL OPEN ACCESS MANDATES. If your research is supported by a funder that requires immediate open

access (e.g. according to Plan S principles) then you should select the gold OA route, and we will direct you to the compliant route where possible. For authors selecting the subscription

publication route, the journal's standard licensing terms will need to be accepted, including self-archiving policies. Those licensing terms will supersede any other terms that the

author or any third party may assert apply to any version of the manuscript.
