Academic colleagues： Starting from now on, our official account will regularly or irregularly release questions and answers related to preprint knowledge. The preprint platform provides simple answers to some basic questions that everyone is concerned about, in order to promote the understanding of relevant issues in the academic community, clarify misunderstandings, and promote the construction of the preprint platform and the academic exchange of new types of preprint. Preprint Platform Construction Project Team for National Science Library, Chinese Academy of Sciences 2023 3.Why do academic exchanges require preprints? Academic exchange is the foundation of scientific research. Authors need to publish their research results for academic evaluation, and readers also need to constantly surpass and innovate on the basis of academic inheritance. Traditional academic exchanges rely on libraries, academic conferences, academic journals and social networks, but there are still some limitations due to time lag or reliability. After the launch of preprint platforms represented by arXiv and ChinaXiv, they have become a new type of academic exchange mode with their convenience, speed, and popularity, effectively compensating for the shortcomings of traditional academic exchange modes, and even becoming the preferred choice for more and more young researchers to publish their achievements and obtain information. Preprints will play an increasingly important role in academic exchanges.(Chujingli)
