DISCLAIMER – These servers were reviewed from the approach of a first use instance and may not accurately reflect the full capabilities of each server. Moreover, any comments are opinions only.
Preprint servers. There’s an incredibly interesting history behind them (watch this space for more on that next year) but as of 2022 there are over 50 different preprint servers. No wonder it feels like they’re an inescapable topic these days. I mean, we’re contributing to that but hey. Some are highly specialised, such as EcoEvoRxiv (that’s ecology, evolution and conservation), and some are geo-restricted, such as AfriaRxiv.
Consideration of preprint servers based on discipline, scope, policies, and readership is relevant to inform where to deposit your preprint, and in turn to maximize visibility for the work and opportunities for feedback from researchers in your specific field. In this episode we take 3 of the top general bioscience preprint severs and put them to battle. We judge each on their:
- Appearance / ease of use – navigating and submitting
- Reach /size
- Journal integrations
- Additional offerings – public peer reviews, data, printing, links out, attention/metrics
- Positives of the server
- Negatives/improvement aspects of the server
- Why choose this server over the others?
