What kinds of links does PubMed Central provide from its site to a journal site?
PubMed Central displays a journal banner — a graphic supplied by the journal — at the top of every page that has content from the journal. Although the banner may not include commercial advertising, it can have links to various pages at the journal site. Some banners even provide a link from the full text of an article in PMC to the corresponding article at the journal site. See PLoS Biology, for example. A journal has the option to include a link from PMC’s general copyright notice to a more specific statement of terms and conditions of use posted on the journal site. PMC also offers the option of a journal home page that contains a brief description of the journal, as well as a list of links to the journal site. See Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, for example.
