ABSTRACT
An increasing number of journals are allowing scientists to submit supplementary material with their articles. The presentation of supplementary information is characterized by a variety of technologies and formats. This study examines the use of supplementary material in a selective sample of high-impact journals from the pure and applied sciences. The authors review publishers' policies concerning the submission of supplementary material and discuss the formats permitted. Recommendations for enhancing access to supplementary material and insuring its effective use by scholars are provided.
