UiB鈥檚聽goal is that research articles should be openly available for all. This is in line with the Norwegian government鈥檚 goal that all publicly funded Norwegian research articles should be made openly available by 2024 and聽with requirements from funders such as The Research Council of Norway and the EU.聽

The national guidelines for open access requires that research articles must be deposited in a suitable academic repository, irrespective of the publishing channel and when or if the article can be made openly available. Articles that are uploaded in Cristin are automatically transferred to聽UiB鈥檚聽open research archive BORA聽and聽made openly available if the license or聽journal/publisher permits it.聽

It is only required to upload聽academic articles in Cristin, not monographs, anthology-chapters or conference proceedings.聽

A full-text document must be uploaded for all academic articles registered in Cristin, regardless of the articles being funded by The Norwegian Research Council and EU or not.聽

The author鈥檚 accepted聽manuscript聽of an article (also called聽postprint, AAM) is the last version of the article that the author sends to the journal, after peer-review, but before being type-set by the publisher. It contains all revisions made during the peer-review process.听听

The accepted version will often be in Word or other text formats.聽

An accepted聽manuscript聽is not the same as a "page proof." You provide the publisher with the version that is accepted. The publisher then provides you with a page proof for review just prior to publication.聽

There are several ways in which to locate the accepted聽manuscript聽of an article:聽

• Search your email, computer hard drive, and cloud storage聽(most relevant if you are the corresponding author).聽
• Contact your co-authors.聽
• Log into the journal's submission page and retrieve a copy of the accepted聽manuscript.聽
• Contact the journal by email and ask for a copy of the accepted聽manuscript聽of your article.聽

The goal is to make as many research articles as possible openly available. Most publishers聽will permit authors to make their accepted manuscript (AAM) openly available, while making the published version (Version of Record/VOR)聽of an article openly available will most often not be permitted.听听

If an article is published open access, you can always upload the published version. The published version may also be uploaded if you are sure that the publisher permits this version to be made openly available.聽

It is possible to upload different file formats in Cristin. However, it is recommended that Word-files or files in other text-formats are converted to PDF before they are uploaded. It is also recommended that comments and proposed changes (track changes in Word) are incorporated and deleted.聽

If possible,聽all parts of an article (text, figures, pictures聽etc) should be聽merged into one document. But it is also possible to upload several files on each article in Cristin.聽

All authors (from聽UiB) have a responsibility to ensure that a full-text is uploaded, but it is only necessary that one of the authors聽upload the full-text document once. If a full-text document is already uploaded, you will see a notification when you click on 鈥淒eliver full-text document鈥� in Cristin.聽

Articles that are uploaded in Cristin are automatically transferred to聽UiB鈥檚聽open research archive BORA聽and made available in accordance with UiB's rights retention policy.
