REF 2021 open access requirements: a practical introduction to uploading publications (for librarians, research support staff and administrators in Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences) New
This course covers the practical steps you need to take in order to ensure that work submitted for publication by University of Cambridge researchers is compliant for REF2021.
We will introduce the principles of open access and open research, and guide you through the necessary steps to meet the open access requirements of REF2021. We will demonstrate key processes for uploading work to Symplectic, including choosing the right version of a work to upload. There will be plenty of time in the session to ask questions, and for you to try out uploading papers.
This course will be useful to you if you:
- administer the uploading of research outputs to Symplectic Elements to make them open access
- manage Symplectic profiles
- All those who manage Symplectic Elements profiles and/or support the uploading of research outputs to Symplectic Elements to make them open access
- This course is tailored for those in Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences, although all are welcome.
- Further details regarding eligibility criteria are available
