IRS990/Description0SCIENCE AND MEDICAL PUBLISHING REMAINS THE CORE OF PLOS PROGRAM EXPENSE AT $14 MILLION. THE SEVEN PLOS JOURNALS ARE OPEN ACCESS AND EACH OF THEM IS RIGOROUSLY PEER REVIEWED. PLOS BIOLOGY IS THE FIRST JOURNAL PUBLISHED BY PLOS AND COVERS ALL ASPECT OF BIOLOGY. PLOS MEDICINE IS THE LEADING OPEN ACCESS MEDICAL JOURNAL, PROVIDING AN INNOVATIVE AND INFLUENTIAL VENUE FOR PRIMARY RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS ON THE MAJOR CHALLENGES TO HUMAN HEALTH WORLDWIDE. PLOS ONE HAS BECOME THE WORLD'S LARGEST PEER-REVIEWED OPEN ACCESS SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL, KNOWN FOR PIONEERING THE REPLACEMENT OF SUBJECTIVE EVALUATION MEASURES WITH OBJECTIVE EVALUATION CRITERIA FOCUSING ON TECHNICAL QUALITY, PUBLISHES PRIMARY RESEARCH FROM OVER 50 SCIENCE AND BIOMEDICAL DISCIPLINES. PLOS GENETICS PUBLISHES NEW RESEARCH IN GENETIC AND GENOMIC BIOLOGY. PLOS PATHOGENS PUBLISHES ORIGINAL RESEARCH AND A VARIETY OF FRONT MATTER ON THE BIOLOGY OF PATHOGENS AND HOST-PATHOGEN INTERACTIONS. PLOS NEGLECTED TROPICAL DISEASES IS DEVOTED TO THE STUDY OF HELMINTH, BACTERIAL, VIRAL, PROTOZOAN, AND FUNGAL INFECTIONS ENDEMIC TO TROPICAL REGIONS. PLOS COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY IS A SOCIETY JOURNAL, ALIGNED WITH THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY (ISCB), THAT PUBLISHES NEW RESEARCH IN ALL AREAS OF BIOLOGY USING COMPUTATIONAL METHODS.PLOS IS WORKING TO EVOLVE THE SCIENTIFIC ARTICLE FROM A STATIC PUBLICATION EVENT INTO A MORE DYNAMIC, LIVING FORM OF COMMUNICATION. OUR AUTHORS'S CONTRIBUTION TO OPEN REPOSITORIES, SUCH AS DRYAD DIGITAL, ENABLES SCIENTISTS TO VALIDATE, EXPLORE, AND REPURPOSE DATA FOR RESEARCH QUESTIONS UNANTICIPATED BY ORIGINAL AUTHORS. THROUGH OPEN-ACCESS PUBLISHING, WE PROMOTE REUSE IN PROJECTS SUCH AS PLOSABLE BIOLOGY, WHICH PROVIDES INTERACTIVE LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES TO PROMOTE PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT IN SCIENCE. PLOS IS A CONTRIBUTING MEMBER OF OPEN RESEARCHER AND CONTRIBUTOR ID (ORCID, INC.) TO STANDARDIZE AUTHOR DISAMBIGUATION. OUR INNOVATIVE PUBLISHING APPROACH TO ADVANCE SPEED, FLEXIBILITY, AND REVISION CAPABILITIES, PLOS CURRENTS, WAS RECENTLY MIGRATED ONTO A NEW PLATFORM, ALLOWING FOR GROWTH AND EXPERIMENTATION TOWARD MORE RAPID COMMUNICATION OF SCIENTIFIC AND MEDICAL INFORMATION.PLOS REMAINS AT THE CENTER OF EFFORTS TO REIMAGINE THE TOOLS FOR DISCOVERING AND ASSESSING RESEARCH ARTICLES. ARTICLE LEVEL METRICS (ALMS), INCLUDING USAGE AND CITATION DATA, ARE AVAILABLE FOR EVERY PLOS ARTICLE FROM THE FIRST ONE PUBLISHED TO THE MOST RECENT. THESE PROVIDE A SUITE OF MEASURES THAT CAN HELP RESEARCHERS, INSTITUTIONS, AND FUNDERS TRACK THE USE AND REACH OF THEIR ARTICLES. WE CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THE QUANTITY, QUALITY, AND USEFULNESS OF THESE MEASURES. INCREASINGLY, ALMS HELP READERS FIND THE ARTICLE MOST RELEVANT TO THEIR NEEDS AND UNDERSTAND THE LARGER CONTEXT OF THE WORK. TO OPTIMALLY SHARE OUR ARTICLES, WE MIGRATED THEM TO A NEW PLATFORM THAT SCALES TO ACCOMMODATE THE PUBLISHING GROWTH OF PLOS JOURNALS. THE PLATFORM IS ABLE TO STORE ANY TYPE OF DATA, RUNS ON A PRIVATE CLOUD, AND IS ARCHITECTED TO MINIMIZE DOWNTIME. IT IS DESIGNED TO SIMPLIFY DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW FEATURES, AND SPEED OUR WEBSITES. AFTER MIGRATION TO THE NEW PLATFORM, THE AVERAGE LOAD TIME OF A SAMPLE ARTICLE FELL FROM FOUR SECONDS TO 0.8 SECONDS. WORK IS ONGOING TO REDESIGN THE APPEARANCE AND USABILITY OF OUR WEBSITES BY UPDATING THEIR LOOK AND FEEL. WE ARE OPTIMIZING FIGURES FOR ONLINE VIEWING BY INCREASING RESOLUTION AND INTERACTIVITY.PLOS ENCOURAGES OTHERS TO USE OUR CONTENT AND DATA. WE PROVIDE APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACES (APIS) FOR ALMS DATA AND A SEARCH API, BOTH OF WHICH ENABLE OUTSIDE DEVELOPERS TO CREATE APPLICATIONS. TO DATE, MORE THAN 111 DEVELOPERS HAVE USED PLOS ALMS API TO DETERMINE, FOR EXAMPLE, THE TOTAL IMPACT OF ARTICLES USING AGGREGATED DATA FROM MULTIPLE SOURCES. OUR GOAL IS NOT ONLY TO MEASURE BUT TO EXTEND THE REACH OF ARTICLES SO THAT RESEARCH IS REUSED IN NOVEL WAYS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO DISCOVERY.PLOS IS PART OF A LARGER COMMUNITY THAT CONTRIBUTES TO AND RAI
