The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS), the preeminent provider of musculoskeletal education to orthopaedic surgeons and others in the world, and its publishing partner of the AAOS, Wolters Kluwer, have announced that the Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (JAAOS) will begin offering an open access publishing option for authors of manuscripts accepted for publication.
Authors of manuscripts who opt for the open access choice retain copyright to their work and AAOS will make the work freely available online to anyone wishing to access it.
The AAOS Board of Directors authorised the implementation of the Open Access option for JAAOS at its May 14th meeting. The JAAOS open access option will be offered to all authors whose work is accepted for publication after June 1, 2016 and going forward.
