Will PubMed Central send citations to PubMed and CrossRef for my journal?
PMC will submit citations to PubMed and/or CrossRef for any journal in PMC, at the request of the publisher. In either case, a citation will be sent automatically on the day that an article becomes available on the PMC web site. Citations usually appear in PubMed the day after they are submitted. For CrossRef, the publisher must have a CrossRef account that PMC can use for submission. PMC does not have its own CrossRef account.
