Policy sull’accesso aperto (Open Access) alla letteratura scientifica

On January 29th 2014 the University of Trento adopted an Open Access policy which applies to all its members and their publications (scientific literature), except the works destined to commercial publishing with payment of royalties (unless otherwise specified by the author). The policy consists in an Immediate Deposit and Optional Access (ID-OA) mandate: as soon as a work is accepted for publication, it must be deposited in the University Open Access Current Research Information System (CRIS) in the digital final accepted draft (whenever possible, the publisher’s proprietary PDF version). The deposit consists in the full text and bibliographic/contextual metadata. Upon careful check of the intellectual property rights, the work is published in OA through the University Institutional Open Access Repository, immediately after the deposit or within six (twelve for human or social sciences) months from the date of acceptance.
