distribute copies of the work; and perform or display the
work.
10. What kind of copyright issues surround the submission
process? (ctd)
- When you signed the publication agreement with your publisher,
you likely gave your copyright over to the publisher, as most
agreements require.
- This would mean that you no longer have the right to
display/distribute the work as you would have to be able to do in
order to post a copy of it online.
- Some but not allpublishers do allow authors to retain the right
to post their works online.
- When you submit your work to the library, a librarian will
research whether you own copyright.
11. What kind of copyright issues surround the submission
process? (ctd)
- In order to deal with this issue for future peer-reviewed
papers you want to submit, we have created an author addendum for
your use in addition to your author agreement.
