Archiving
All PLOS articles are archived in PubMed Central and LOCKSS.
Publishing Schedule
PLOS strives to keep to a continuous publication schedule so that articles are published as quickly as possible, as soon as they are ready. We make exceptions for articles that need to be scheduled at a specific time, press released content, and other situations.
