To support copyright compliance, Researchers should conduct copyright clearances on all third party materials present in the work before submission to AR&S and keep records of these clearances.
-
3.3. Open Access licences
A Creative Commons Attribution International 4.0 () licence is recommended for all research outputs deposited in AR&S. Note that research funders and publishers may only permit certain types of open access licences.
-
3.4. Takedown procedures
In accordance with the Procedure for Actioning Copyright Infringement Allegations and Take-Down Notices, the Library will remove any material from AR&S that is subject to a Take-Down Notice as directed by the Copyright & Licensing Coordinator.
4. Deposit to AR&S
Research outputs are deposited to AR&S via Aurora. Material listed in section 2.2 Exclusions or that cannot be made publicly available must not deposited to AR&S. An overview of the deposit process is shown below:
-
4.1. Traditional research outputs
Traditional research outputs deposited to AR&S, including journal articles, conference papers, books and book chapters, must be the peer-reviewed version i.e. the Author Accepted Manuscript (AAM) or the published version (see versions below).
To deposit their research output to AR&S, researchers need to:
- Claim or manually add publication metadata for the research output in Aurora (see Aurora Support).
- Where the research has been funded by an external body:
- Ensure the Funding Acknowledgement field of the publication record in Aurora includes funder, grant ID and project details (as required by the funder)
- Optionally, link the publication record to the associated grant funding record in Aurora
- Choose and apply an appropriate open access licence (reuse licence) to the output in accordance with the publishing agreement and as stipulated by relevant funder policies, noting that some funders require application of a CC BY or other licence.
- Upload an appropriate version of the output (see section 5. Versions below), or if the output was published open access, enter a persistent link to the open access (OA) location (e.g. DOI). If an embargo applies, the file will be restricted in AR&S and will be made accessible by the Library once the embargo period ends.
Research outputs that cannot be made publicly available, such as for privacy or confidentiality reasons, must not be deposited to AR&S. The details of the output (metadata record) can be deposited to AR&S, when appropriate, by choosing the Deposit Without Files option.
The output will be reviewed by the Library before being made publicly available in AR&S, subject to any embargo periods.
-
4.2. NTROs and other research outputs
Wherever possible, NTROs specified in section 2.1 Inclusions, or a representation of the output, should be deposited to AR&S. At a minimum the details of the output (metadata record) are required to be entered in Aurora and deposited to AR&S. While Aurora does not have the capacity to build portfolios, NTROs intended to make up a portfolio may still be deposited individually. Other research outputs may be deposited to AR&S as specified in section 2.1 Inclusions.
In most cases there will not be an existing metadata record for these types of outputs in Aurora, so this will need to be added manually.
The files uploaded to AR&S will depend on the individual output and may include event program, music score, digital recording, full report, full book or chapter, or book front matter.
To deposit their research output to AR&S, researchers need to:
- Claim or manually add the NTRO or other research output as a new publication in Aurora (see Aurora Support).
- Complete all mandatory metadata fields, including a Research Statement describing the research component of the output where applicable (if unable to provide a research statement at the time put TBC, or NA if not applicable).听
- Where the research has been funded by an external body:
- Ensure the Funding Acknowledgement field of the publication record in Aurora includes funder, grant ID and project details (as specified by the funder)
- Optionally, link the publication record to the associated grant funding record in Aurora
- Select and apply an appropriate open access licence (reuse licence) to the output.
- Upload the output (or representation of the output) if it can be made publicly available in AR&S, or if the output was published open access, enter a persistent link to the open access (OA) location (e.g. DOI).
Research outputs that cannot be made publicly available, such as for privacy or confidentiality reasons, must not be deposited to AR&S. The details of the output (metadata record) can be deposited to AR&S, when appropriate, by choosing the Deposit Without Files option. For NTROs that cannot be made publicly available, researchers may also upload evidence that demonstrates the content of the output, choosing the file version 鈥淪upporting information鈥 鈥 these files will not be made publicly available.
The output will be reviewed by Research Services and the Library before being made publicly available in AR&S, subject to any embargo periods.
Research Services can provide further guidance on NTROs.
-
4.3. Higher degree by research theses
Higher degree by research theses are submitted to Adelaide Graduate Research School as part of the final thesis submission process. They are not deposited via Aurora. Refer to sections 7.2 and 7.5 below and the Research Student Handbook.
5. Versions
The version of the research output deposited to AR&S should be closest to the published version which can be made publicly available.
- If the published version (Version of Record) was published open access, this version may be deposited, or a link to the published version provided.
- If the published version (Version of Record) was not published open access, the Author Accepted Manuscript (AAM) should be deposited.
-
5.1. Submitted version or preprint
Preprints are the author鈥檚 original version of a research output before peer-review or editing. Preprints are not accepted in AR&S. Making the preprint of a research output open access does not fulfil open access policy requirements of funders or the 最新糖心Vlog. Preprints may be shared on a preprint server.
-
5.2. Author Accepted Manuscript (AAM)
The AAM is the accepted and amended final version of a paper, following peer-review and prior to publication. This version can be deposited to AR&S if allowed by the publisher. Some publishers impose an embargo period of 12-36 months and access to the deposited file will be restricted in AR&S during that time.
-
5.3. Proof
A proof is a copy of the final version of the paper provided to the author for review before publication and includes publisher鈥檚 typesetting, formatting and copy editing. Proof copies are not accepted in AR&S. This version is considered to be a published version and cannot be deposited to AR&S in place of an AAM.
-
5.4. Published version (Version of Record)
The published version is the final version of a publication, including typesetting and formatting. The published version can usually only be deposited to AR&S if it has been published open access with a suitable re-use licence, such as a Creative Commons licence, or if there is an agreement with the publisher to make the output available in an institutional repository.
6. Discovery & access
Research outputs are searchable and accessible via AR&S with selected outputs also searchable in Library Search. AR&S is also harvested by external search engines/aggregators.
