For Librarians

mBio seeks to reflect the enormity of the interconnected microbial world: from symbiosis to pathogenesis, energy acquisition and conversion, climate change, geologic change, food and drug production, and even animal behavioral change.

ASM publishes mBio content under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license. The author(s) retains copyright under this license. Others may read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, adapt, link to, reorganize, and build upon the published work for any purpose, even commercially, as long as credit to the author and original article is given. For more information about reusing mBio content, see the Proprietary Rights page.

We encourage you to demonstrate your commitment to making microbiology research widely available by ensuring mBio is included in your institution's collection. If your institution does not currently subscribe to an online ASM journal, you may contact us to request a free institutional account that will allow you to access mBio usage data for your libraries.

If your institution has an online subscription to any of the following ASM journals (Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy®, Applied and Environmental Microbiology®, Clinical Microbiology Reviews®, Infection and Immunity®, Journal of Bacteriology®, Journal of Clinical Microbiology®, Journal of Virology®, Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews®, and/or Molecular and Cellular Biology®), you will automatically be provided with usage statistics for mBio as well. In addition, you can create an account on the HighWire Portal that allows you to access usage statistics and cross-journal reporting for all of your HighWire-hosted journals at once.
