11-Oct-07 Marcel Brannemann AWI-Library, Bremerhaven, Germany Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft German Reserach Foundation "The DFG expects the research results funded by it to be published and to be made available, where possible, digitally and on the internet via open access. To achieve this, the contributions involved should either be deposited in discipline- specific or institutional electronic archives (repositories) following conventional publication, or should be published in a recognised peer-reviewed open access journal. When entering into publishing contracts scientists participating in DFG-funded projects should, as far as possible, permanently reserve a non-exclusive right of exploitation for electronic publication of their research results for the purpose of open access. Here, discipline-specific delay periods of generally 6-12 months can be agreed upon, before which publication of previously published research results in discipline-specific or institutional electronic archives may be prohibited. Please ensure that a note indicating support of the project by the DFG is included in the publication."
