Coming Soon. Bodleian iSkills: Authors, copyright and open access. Making it work for you (Thu 15 June, 14.00 to 15.00)

  • subscription and open access articles
  • uploading to the web or repositories
  • University and funder policies (inc. REF)

Participants are welcome to bring along an example of a publisher copyright agreement that they have signed in the past or from a journal they publish in regularly.
