What does it contain? published articles, reports, essays, books, reviews conference presentations, papers, and proceedings theses and dissertations unpublished working papers teaching materials (“learning objects”) electronic journals department records and archives

The “institutional repository” (IR) receives and archives one electronic copy preserves this copy permanently in the UNL Libraries collections migrates the data as formats evolve provides and controls electronic access creates a stable URL with a unl.edu address

Scholarly Communication supports collaboration among UNL faculty and with sources outside the University establishes sites to disseminate UNL research and build communities of engaged researchers in a particular area. provides a central searchable repository for otherwise scattered information

Electronic Publishing places scholarly publication tools directly in the hands of the faculty each publication “series” is controlled by its own editorial board or administrator no limits on article length or number, size, or colors of illustrations access can be open or restricted to a subscription list

Applications UNL units can archive electronic records and documents Scholars can share materials among a restricted group Faculty can publish their work electronically on the Internet Library can build and manage digital collections

Benefits to scholars: Your work becomes accessible immediately, 24/7, worldwide becomes visible to common search engines (such as Google) gets viewed and cited more frequently can attract collaborators or supporters is identified with your name and date of submission is collected in one place has a permanent home

Who controls the copyright ? the author or author-entity the party to whom copyright may have been sold or licensed by the author not the library not the university (unless by separate agreement)

Rights to published works 92% of journals allow pre-publication posting to an IR 60% of journals allow post-publication posting most publishers will grant permission to authors for deposit in their home institution’s repository

Publishers who allow some form of self-archiving: American Economics Association American Institute of Physics American Mathematical Society American Psychological Association Am. Soc. of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology American Society of Plant Biologists Annual Reviews Arnold Publishers BioMed Central Biophysical Society Blackwell BMJ Publishing Group CAB International Cambridge University Press Ecological Society of America Elsevier Geological Society IEEE John Wiley Johns Hopkins University Press Kluwer National Academy of Sciences Nature Publishing Group Oxford University Press Royal Society Sage Springer Verlag Taylor & Francis See
