What is the advantage of bioRxiv?
bioRxiv provides free and unrestricted access to all articles posted on the server. We believe this should apply not only to human readers but also to machine analysis of the content.
Should I submit a preprint?
Unlike traditional journal articles, preprints can be updated. “As long as this is permitted by their journal of interest, authors should submit a new version whenever they make significant changes to the manuscript,” says Hindle.
Can you reference a preprint?
If you submit a manuscript that is available as a preprint, indicate that in your cover letter. If you cite material from a preprint, clearly indicate the reference as “Preprint.”
How do I get rid of preprint?
Because preprints are part of the scholarly record, they cannot be deleted. However, preprints can be withdrawn, removing the content but leaving behind basic metadata like title, authors, and the reason for withdrawal, if the author chooses to provide it.
Can preprints be cited?
Most journals allow citation of preprints in the reference list of the article in question, similar to journal articles. The NIH has recommended a preprint citation format that makes clear the status of the work as a preprint and includes its DOI.
What happens to preprint after publication?
Once a preprint is publicly available it becomes a permanent part of the scientific record and cannot be removed. However, it is possible to revise the manuscript with the most recent version at any time prior to publication in a journal.
Does bioRxiv count as a publication?
