If your work is not OA on the publisher's website at the time of publishing (i.e. not OA publishing) and you would like to make your publication OA by self-archiving the postprint version of your work in CityU Scholars, you can submit your postprint files to the Library via the submission buttons above.
Upon receiving the files, the Library will verify if the file version is correct, check with publisher's Green OA policies, and process the file deposit in accordance with the embargo period (if any) and credit line requirements (if any).
To facilitate the process, the following information will be asked when submitting your Green OA deposit requests:
Is the publication arising from research projects fully or partially supported by local / overseas funding bodies (e.g. RGC, NIH or Wellcome)? If yes, please specify.
A copy of the related publishing agreement or copyright transfer agreement (if any).
The postprint / accepted author manuscript of the article
For any enquiries, please contact the Library at lbopen@cityu.edu.hk.
