The document discusses Nature Publishing Group's APIs and plans for an API developer portal: 1) Nature Publishing Group aims to provide quality scientific data through APIs to enable new applications and share ideas through a developer community on their upcoming developer portal. 2) Their API business model will have different access tiers for keyless public access, non-commercial developers, non-commercial reuse, and commercial developers. 3) Current APIs include an OpenSearch API and Blogs API, and future APIs planned are for article content, jobs, events, and research highlights.

- NPG has a position statement on OA (Jan 2011) for more info and background: http://www.nature.com/press_releases/statement.html Who to ask for more info: Emma Greenwood (Locum Publisher) or Grace Baynes (Corporate PR) Nature Communications is unique amongst the Nature journals in offering an open access option. The gold open access model (funded by article processing charges) is still inappropriate for Nature and the Nature research journals. These journals decline more than 90% of submissions, these high rejection rates and the developmental editing that goes into every published paper would make APCs prohibitively high. We estimate the APCs on these journals would be between $10-30000, and research funders are not currently willling to support this. The Nature Review journals do not publish original research papers. The Manuscript Deposition Service deposits the authors accepted version (not the final PDF) into PubMed Central and UK PubMed Central. Participating funders are: Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) National Institutes of Health (NIH) Austrian Science Fund (ASF) Arthritis Research Campaign (ARC) Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) British Heart Foundation (BHF) Cancer Research UK Chief Scientist Office, Scottish Executive (CSO) Department of Health (DoH) Health Research Board (HRB) Medical Research Council (MRC) Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) Telethon Italy Wellcome Trust
