FAQs

• What is the Online Subscription Policy?

  The Online Subscription Policy provides time-bound access to publications from January to December, covering one calendar year. During this period, subscribers can access all content published within the timeframe of their subscription.

• What does Single User Access or IP Access mean?

  Single User Access: This grants exclusive access to a specific username and password for one individual. Sharing login credentials or multiple logins using the same username will result in the user being blocked.

  IP Access: IP-based access is provided within the geographical range of an institute. It does not require passwords, and each institute is allotted a single username for access.

• Why is subscribing to a Subject Collection advantageous?

  Subscribing to a Subject Collection offers several benefits:

  Subject-specific publications are bundled together, often at discounted prices.

  Access to any publication uploaded to the same subject category within the subscription period is available without additional charges.

• How can I sample the content before subscribing?

  There are two ways to sample the content:

  Sample copies can be requested by emailing subscription@acspublisher.com.

  For institutes, a month-long Trial Access facility is available, offering a single session per institute to demonstrate how IP-based access works. This facility can be accessed on the journal home page.

• My online access was blocked despite subscribing to the Print & Online versions. Why did this happen?

  Print and online versions operate on different timelines. Print versions are dispatched by the publisher and are volume-based, while online versions are available from January to December (Content Publication) of the corresponding year. To maintain constant access, subscribers need to renew their online subscriptions with us.

• Can I access back issues if I subscribe to the current year's journal?

  Yes, subscribing to the current issue of a journal allows access to older backups or archives, provided they are available with ACS Publisher.
