Return to Subscriber Help and Services  >>



PNAS Online Institutional Subscribers receive access to tables of contents, abstracts, papers published online in Early Edition before print, full-text searching, full-text display, PDFs, links to Medline and GenBank, e-mail table of contents alerting, and interjournal links to other HighWire Press journals. Access is limited to computers within a particular set of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and does not require Usernames or Passwords.
Institutional Subscriptions


"Authorized Users" are authenticated, current, full- and part-time students, employees (including faculty, staff, affiliated researchers, independent contractors, and walk-in users), and other individuals who have legal access to the Subscriber's facilities and computer network. Remote access is allowable to Authorized Users only if they are authenticated through a secure network. Open proxies and other nonauthenticated proxy servers are prohibited.

An "Institution" is all parts of an organization that report to the same Chief Academic Officer or Chief Executive Officer. For multicampus academic institutions, each organization listed in the Directory of Higher Education is a separate Institution (http://www.educause.edu), and requires its own Site License. For the purposes of these terms and conditions, academic law libraries and academic medical libraries are considered part of a university and are part of an Institution only if they report to the same institutional Chief Academic Officer.


Individuals who are not NAS Members may subscribe at the Nonmember Individual, Postdoc, or Student level, or at the Institutional level.
