acs certification details?

ACS offers the following benefits to support the authors of ACS and scientific documentation.

Researchers, teachers and students from institutions around the world appreciate the articles published in ACS journals through institutional subscriptions at prices specially designed for different sizes, types and geographic locations of their centers. ACS members can have the privilege of subscribing to print and electronic magazines with great discounts.

Those who do not purchase a single item of interest can purchase it at a nominal cost or obtain a free article on request through an interlibrary loan.

Through the ACS Articles on Demand program, any ACS author can email or publish a link on personal or institutional websites to direct readers to the published version of the final article on the ACS website, at no cost to pay. Readers who do not have membership access privileges get unlimited access through these authorized links, with downloads of unlimited articles provided 12 months after the publication of the article.

ACS authors can choose to participate in the ACS AuthorChoice program which has been expanded to allow authors to choose between immediate availability (ACS AuthorChoice) or available 12 months after the publication of the table version (ACS AuthorChoice + 12), depending on the preferred option and funding requirements. The ACS AuthorChoice and ACS AuthorChoice + 12 options offer higher discounts if the corresponding author is a member of the American Chemical Society and / or is affiliated with an institution participating in the publications of the ACS All package. Additionally, authors may choose to fund the acquisition under Creative Commons Attribution (CC-BY) or Creative Commons Attribution Non commercial No Derivative Works (CC-BY-NC-ND) license conditions. ACS AuthorChoice and ACS AuthorChoice + 12 commissions compare favorably with the commissions for similar services offered by non-ACS magazines.
