Clarifying PMC's Role as an Archive

The role of what a library means in a digital world is evolving and expanding. PMC has a large and diverse user base that includes students and the public, as well as researchers, clinicians, and librarians. We recognize that these different audiences have varying levels of familiarity with NLM, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the scholarly publishing process and have recently updated how we describe, display, and share articles in PMC to provide our users with more context. Visit NCBI Insights for more information about these updates.
