The Mental Health Clinician is adopting the open access policy of providing unrestricted access to all of its articles via this web site. Although the MHC is only beginning the evolution toward formalized peer review, we are joining a growing movement toward Open Access. This transition benefits contributors by providing a broader audience, and it benefits readers by making citations easier since others can also view the original article. This policy also prepares the MHC for archival in PubMed Central (PMC), a full-text archive of biomedical and life sciences journal literature. By searching for open access content, you can see that over 400,000 open access articles have already been archived in PMC.
