Open Access

Theses

Upon completion of a thesis by research, a candidate's electronic version of their work is submitted for examination alongside a completed thesis declaration form to the Research Office. Once the thesis passes examination, Research Office staff forward these documents to ResearchOnline team for uploading to the repository. Authors retain the copyright for their thesis.

Research Outputs

Documents published in this category are full-text research works produced by staff at the University, the versions of which comply with copyright and license permissions (see Which version to submit? tab above). The procedure for adding the work to the repository involves submitting the information concerning the output to the IRMA research reporting system in the first instance (see the University Research pages for more information). The IRMA team then forward the relevant data to ResearchOnline on the authors' behalf.

eJournals

The ResearchOnline product is built around commercial-grade editorial management software. This gives the University an opportunity to publish a range of peer-reviewed eJournals. If staff are interested in publishing an open access eJournal or eTextbook, please contact the ResearchOnline team at researchonline@nd.edu.au

• Submitted version is the pre-print of the manuscript - the paper before peer review. This is the author's version of the article that was sent to a journal for consideration.

• Accepted version or Author's Accepted Manuscript (AAM) or post-print - is the paper after peer-review. This is the author's version of an article that has been amended in order to reflect revisions in the publication process (see Publisher portals tab above for instructions on downloading this version)

• Published version: the final version or version of record as it appears in the publication, including typesetting, logos, page numbers etc.

Authors usually assign their copyright to publishers when they negotiate contracts. The SHERPA/RoMEO database provides a guide to publishers' copyright policies and the deposit of journal articles in open access or institutional repositories.

Note that these publisher permissions also apply to the author if they wish to upload a copy of their output to sites such as ResearchGate or Academia.edu.

• Type the name or ISSN of the journal your article will appear in
• Depending on the publishing model (gold or green) you may be able to deposit the published (final), accepted (post-print), or submitted (pre-print) version
• Check the icons for each of these versions under Publisher Policy, particularly:
• 
• Embargo (hourglass) will tell you of any waiting period, Location (folder) will mention where the article can be stored (look for Repository), and Conditions (tick list) are any extra requirements. 
• If your pathway needs the accepted version (also called the author accepted manuscript), then see the Publisher portals tab above on how to retrieve this version of your article.

If your journal accepts manuscript submissions via email or uses a bespoke submission portal not listed below, please contact your journal’s Editor to request a copy of the accepted manuscript suitable for author self-archiving on ResearchOnline@ND, Notre Dame's Institutional Repository.
