We are pleased to announce that, after nearly two years of testing, ZooKeys
was accepted for archival and display in
PubMedCentral<http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/journals/1355/>,
the wold's leading archive for biomedical literature, based at the National
Library of Medicine <http://www.nlm.nih.gov/> (NLM) of the USA. The link to
ZooKeys articles on PMC is at:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/journals/1355/

Thus, ZooKeys becomes the first journal in biodiversity science to use a
domain-specific extension (TaxPub <http://sourceforge.net/projects/taxpub/>)
of the general NLM mark up schema that permits automatic extraction and
retrieval of specific information on biological taxa, such as taxon
treatments and their features from an article’s text.

We hope that the experience accumulated by ZooKeys with
TaxPub<http://sourceforge.net/projects/taxpub/>will be used by other
taxonomic journals to make biodiversity information
openly accessible and easy to use - a process that has been inspired by
Donat Agosti and the team of Plazi <http://www.plazi.org>.
