COVID-19 Resources

Publishers make COVID-19 content freely available

Press release from the Wellcome Trust:


"More than 30 leading publishers have committed to making all of their COVID-19 and coronavirus-related publications, and the available data supporting them, immediately accessible in PubMed Central (PMC) and other public repositories.

This follows a request from science leaders to the publishing community to make their content open and re-usable. Working in partnership with the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and the US National Library of Medicine, Wellcome contacted signatories of the statement Sharing research data and findings relevant to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. 

Publishers have agreed to make their content accessible in machine-readable formats and license it in ways which allow researchers to use text and data-mining and machine-learning technologies on all of the content made available."
