Requests for Reprints

Evidence of Transfer Requests for reprints of journal articles generated by the research study.

Some journals provide reprints of journal article publications in print format for authors to disseminate to their colleagues or to others upon request. Other journals allow authors to disseminate a specific number of reprints in electronic format (PDFs) via email. Sending reprints to colleagues and other parties is a means of knowledge transfer.

Assessment

Documentation by research study investigators of reprints requested is recommended for tracking of knowledge transfer.
