Exemplary self-archiving policy at QUT
Only this week did I learn about the exemplary self-archiving
policy
http://www.qut.edu.au/admin/mopp/F/F_01_03.html at Queensland
University of Technology. It was adopted last September, but took
effect on January 1, 2004.
Material which represents the total publicly available
research and scholarly output of the University is to be
located in the University's digital or 'E-print' repository
http://eprints.qut.edu.au/ subject to the exclusions noted. In this
way it contributes to a growing international corpus of refereed and
other research literature available on line, a process occurring in
universities worldwide.
The following materials are to be included:
refereed research articles and contributions at the post-print stage
(subject to any necessary agreement with the publisher); refereed
research literature at the pre-printed stage (with corrigenda added
subsequently if necessary at the discretion of the author); theses
(as prepared for the Australian Digital Theses (ADT) process);
un-refereed research literature, conference contributions, chapters
in proceedings, etc. [...]
Material to be commercialised, or which contains confidential
material, or of which the promulgation would infringe a legal
commitment by the University and/or the author, should not be included
in the repository.
(Thanks to Carolyn Young.)
