Institutional Subscriptions

For the most part, an Institutional Online Subscription authorizes use at a localized site. A "site" is an organizational unit, and may be academic or nonacademic. For organizations located in more than one city, each city office is considered a different site. For organizations within the same city that are administered independently, each office is considered a different site.

For example, each campus in the State University of New York system is considered a different site, and each branch or office of UpJohn Laboratories is considered a different site.

Individuals who are not GSA members may subscribe at the Individual (Non-Member) level, at the Institutional level, or may want to consider applying for GSA membership.

Ordering Procedure up arrow

SUBSCRIBING TO GENETICS ONLINE IS A 2-STEP PROCESS:

First, you must follow your usual "new serial" ordering procedures to subscribe to the paper version of GENETICS, ISSN 0016-6371, which also provides access to the online version. Payment should be made to your subscription agent or directly to GSA.

Second, once your serial vendor or GSA has received payment, you will receive a letter with instructions for obtaining access to the online edition; the letter will direct you to an online form. You will be asked to provide the following information necessary to activate your subscription to GENETICS Online:

Institution's IP Address(es)
CRITICAL INFORMATION ABOUT IP ADDRESSES

Contact name, title, phone, fax, and email
Customer number (included with the letter)

We will send you the address of this web form and instructions for filling it out after we verify payment.
Your institution will not have access to the full GENETICS Online until you complete this second step; it is critical that yo activate your subscription, or you will not be granted access.
