The Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh, German Chemical Society), the American Chemical Society (ACS), and the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) have announced a partnership with the Chinese Chemical Society (CCS) and the Chemical Society of Japan (CSJ) as co-owners to support the strategic and financial development of ChemRxiv, a preprint server for the global chemistry community.

Authors working across all fields of chemistry can post their research findings to the server ahead of formal peer review and publication. The service is free of charge, features easy submission, and supports a wide variety of file formats. ChemRxiv submission includes a process that checks for plagiarism and scientific integrity.

ChemRxiv is supported, developed, and led by societies representing the global chemistry research community. Close collaboration between the five societies aims to ensure the sustainability of this service and present a clear path to broader engagement with authors and readers of the service.
