InfoOverview
PubMed Central® (PMC) is a free full-text archive of biomedical and life sciences journal article at the U.S. National Institutes of Health's National Library of Medicine (NIH/NLM). The PubMed Central (PMC) Article Datasets include full-text articles archived in PMC and made available under license terms that allow for text mining and other types of secondary analysis and reuse. The articles are organized on AWS based on PMCID and version number:
The PMC Open Access (OA) Subset, which includes all articles in PMC that are available for reuse based on terms specified by the publisher. The majority of available articles have machine-readable Creative Commons license
The Author Manuscript Dataset, which includes all articles collected under a funder policy in PMC and made available in machine-readable formats for text mining. NOTEL Author manuscripts with Creative Commons licenses are also part of the PMC Open Access Subset.
The Historical OCR Dataset, which includes historical articles, published in the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries, scanned as part of an NLM digitization project, that have Creative Commons licenses. NOTE: These articles are also part of the PMC Open Access Subset.
These datasets collectively span more than half of PMC's total collection of full-text articles. PMC enables access to these datasets to expand the impact of open access and publicly-funded research; enable greater machine learning across the spectrum of scientific research; reach new audiences; and open new doors for discovery. The bucket in this registry contains individual article versions in NISO Z39.96-2015 JATS XML format as well as in plain text as extracted from the XML and the full article PDF. Media files and supplementary material files are also available for all open access articles. The bucket is updated continuously with new and updated articles.
