Do Nodes have an impact factor?

No. Nodes are infrastructure, not a scientific journal.

Authors can use Nodes as a repository and archival solution for their research and publish their manuscripts in the scientific journals that are most relevant for them.

Which journals allow posting of preprints and research materials prior to submission?

Most scientific journals will consider manuscripts that were posted on Nodes or preprint servers or open repositories prior to submission.

A list of journal policies can be found on , as maintained by individual publishers, and . Authors should consult these lists and other sources of information before posting on Nodes.

Can the content contained in my Nodes also be posted elsewhere?

Yes, provided that the licensing agreements of the places you previously posted or published your content on (or plan to do so) allow this.

The responsibility for the shared content lies entirely with the authors. Please see our Terms of Service for additional information.

Can I post an article on Nodes that I have submitted to a journal?

Yes. The only thing to note is whether posting your work on an open-state repository like Nodes is accepted by the respective publisher.

Certain journals require you to inform the editor about this. A list of journal policies can be found on , as maintained by individual publishers, and . Make sure to check first. The responsibility for the shared content lies entirely with the authors. Please see our Terms of Service for additional information.

How can my materials on Nodes be linked to the journal version when it is published?

We are working on this.

In the near future, content from a Node can be linked to the published version of the manuscript via the Node’s PID embedded into the PDF version of the manuscript and the publisher’s HTML, provided the publisher agrees. Authors can already post the version of their manuscript on Nodes, which will be linked to the publisher’s server via its DOI.
