During the research output verification process, the Library investigates options for making your accepted author manuscript available as Open Access. They ensure that any conditions required by the publisher are complied with.
Accepted author manuscript is the author’s version of the manuscript of an article that has been accepted for publication and which includes any author-incorporated changes suggested through the processes of submission processing, peer review, and editor-author communications.
Accepted author manuscripts normally do not include publisher added contributions such as copy-editing, formatting, technical enhancements and (if relevant) pagination. For most commercial publishers, the final accepted version is the only one allowed to be uploaded into an open access repository under a publisher's copyright agreements.
