Publishing Schedule

PLOS strives to keep a continuous publication schedule so that articles are published online as soon as they are ready and as quickly as possible, as often as daily. We make exceptions for articles that need to be scheduled at a specific time, press released content, and other situations. All publications roll up into monthly issues with the exception of PLOS ONE, PLOS Climate, PLOS Global Public Health, PLOS Mental Health and PLOS Water.

Indexing

To ensure research content is accessible and discoverable as widely as possible, all PLOS journals are widely indexed by major services such as Crossref, Dimensions, DOAJ, Google Scholar, PubMed Central, Scopus, Web of Science, and many more.

We submit all of our titles to major indexing services for evaluation as soon as possible according to the schedule of the specific service.
