ResearchGate: Your published research, accessible and in context

We’ve teamed up with ResearchGate to help make your work more visible where your community already is.

Full-text, published articles from selected journals will be uploaded to ResearchGate upon publication. Open access articles are available to all ResearchGate members, while subscription-only articles will be accessible to ResearchGate members with access through their institution.

Benefits for authors:

  • You can easily share your research without worrying about copyright rules or spending time responding to full-text access requests.
  • Readers can access your final, published article that has been peer reviewed, copyedited, and formatted — the same version available on Wiley Online Library.
  • More readers will be able to discover and access your research. Your research will be visible in users’ personalized discovery feeds on ResearchGate, growing your impact.
  • See who is citing your work and track early interest through detailed stats on article views and recommendations.

Which journals are included?

A wide array of journals are part of this program, including nearly all our open access journals, plus journals published on behalf of American Geophysical Union (AGU) and The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET).


How does the partnership affect authors?

If you published an article in one of the participating journals after January 1, 2019 (or from the year the journal became fully open access), the full-text, final version of the article has been automatically added to the publication page on ResearchGate. No action is required on your part to upload the article or make it available to ResearchGate members.


Will I be notified if my article has been uploaded to ResearchGate?

We'll contact you by email to let you know your article has been uploaded to ResearchGate. If you're a ResearchGate member, your published articles will be automatically linked with your profile so you can track the impact and reach of your research..


Can I still upload my own version of the article?

ResearchGate members can upload additional full-text versions to their publications (e.g., an accepted manuscript) in addition to the version of record provided by us. ResearchGate members must make sure they have the necessary rights and permissions to share those versions publicly.

How will researchers access my article? Is there a cost?

What happens if a researcher can’t get access to my article?

If a researcher is not recognized by ResearchGate as having access through a Wiley subscription, they will be able to access a preview of the article (including the article’s full abstract, figures, and publication information, as well as the first page of the full-text), but there will be no option to download or read the full-text directly on ResearchGate.


Are all article types included?
