Oxford Journals has announced that open access articles published in over 50 journals in the Oxford Open initiative are now being automatically deposited in PubMed Central.
Martin Richardson, Managing Director of Oxford Journals, commented, "Automatic deposit of open access articles into PMC should increase dissemination of research and help to make the lives of authors easier. For instance, NIH-funded authors who have paid a fee to make their articles open access in one of our Oxford Open biomedical journals will not need to deposit their article into PMC - Oxford Journals will do so on their behalf."
Oxford Journals is depositing into PubMed Central all open access papers that have been or will be published in 58 journals participating in the Oxford Open initiative. Regular data feeds between PMC and the journals concerned have been set up. Recently published open access content is being deposited first, followed by older content. Please refer to the Oxford Open website for the latest information on the status of PMC deposits for individual journals.
Oxford Journals has also prepared some information and guidelines for authors of various funding agencies.

Oxford Open |
| Through the Oxford Open initiative, authors of accepted papers have the option of paying an open access publication charge to make their paper freely available online immediately. If an author does not choose to pay the open access publication charge, their paper will be published in the normal manner, but it will not be made freely available online immediately. |
