10. What kind of copyright issues surround the submission process? (ctd)

  • When you signed the publication agreement with your publisher, you likely gave your copyright over to the publisher, as most agreements require.
  • This would mean that you no longer have the right to display/distribute the work as you would have to be able to do in order to post a copy of it online.
  • Some but not allpublishers do allow authors to retain the right to post their works online.
  • When you submit your work to the library, a librarian will research whether you own copyright.

11. What kind of copyright issues surround the submission process? (ctd)

  • In order to deal with this issue for future peer-reviewed papers you want to submit, we have created an author addendum for your use in addition to your author agreement.
  • Addendum generator webform is in the works
  • Until the webform is ready, we can provide you with this document upon request.
