In addition to publications in a scientific journal, your closed access publications can usually also be made openly available (Green Open Access) via our institutional repositories. Self-archiving increases the visibility of your research and leads to more citations.

As part of our self-archiving service, we check for you whether and from what point in time the respective publishers allow the uploading of the author accepted manuscript (AAM) or the publisher's publication and then contact you. In accordance with the provisions of the secondary publication right under §38 (4) of the German Copyright Act (UrhG), publications that appear in a collection published at least twice a year may also be made publicly available in the accepted manuscript version 12 months after their initial publication.
