MELVILLE, N.Y., March 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- AIP Publishing, a leading not-for-profit scholarly publisher in the physical sciences, has joined with Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) in a three-year Read & Publish agreement. Commencing 2022, this is a key agreement with a national laboratory in the United States.

Under the agreement, articles by PNNL-affiliated researchers can now be published Open Access in 11 of AIP Publishing's peer-reviewed journals.

PNNL researchers also benefit from unlimited reading access to articles in 30 journals from AIP Publishing.
