Policies by publisher
Submission of preprints is accepted by all
open access journals. Over the last decade, they have been joined by most
subscription journals, however publisher policies are often vague or ill-defined.
In general, most publishers that permit preprints require that:
* the authors disclose the existence of the preprint at submission (e.g. in the cover letter)
* once an article is published, the preprint should link to the published version (typically via
DOI)
* the preprint should not have been formally peer reviewed
Publishers may place additional restrictions (e.g. specifying non-commercial servers or preferred licenses). Most publishers have a unified policy across all of their journals, however some journals list exceptions in their own policies.
