Articles Data
• Most agencies cite PubMed
Central as a model for
depositing publicly accessible
versions of articles
• Almost all of the released
documents indicate that
agencies will be requiring grant
recipients to make final versions
of their research articles
available freely within 12
months of publication
• Many will require that the
underlying data associated with
those articles be made publicly
available at the time the article is
published or within 12-30 months
of compiling the final data set
• Most agencies will be, if they are
not already, requiring that a data
management plan (DMP) be
submitted with all grant proposals
