  11. Contractual requirements: GA Spec. Clause 39 According to the mandatory requirements of the grant agreement (GA), Special Clause 39, NACLIM scientists, as EC grant recipients, are required to make their best efforts to ensure that electronic copies of publications become freely available to anyone - either through an institutional or subject-based repository, as soon as possible, and no later than six months after publication. "Open access" (OA) in this context refers to peer-reviewed publications only

  12. How can we comply with OA requirements? Privilege Open Access Journals If OA Journals are not interesting to you: Ask your publisher for a Golden OA If no Golden OA is possible, then opt for a Green OA and self-deposit the post-print version If you cannot, ask the publisher to make an exception for the FP7 with an “Amendment to publishing agreement” Consult the list: www.doaj.org Check the publishing agreement & pay extra fee for a Golden OA Check publishing conditions in Sherpa/RoMEO database: can you deposit the post-print version? Send to publisher the templates available in the NACLIM intranet If all above is not feasible: wait the end of the embargo time (6M) and then send the final manuscript to project office naclim@zmaw.de and deposit the final version or post-print version

  13. Golden OA: Open access publishing Pay extra publication fees for immediate access to your final published article (eligible costs under FP7) Which version? Final published article Where to deposit? 1) Institutional repository of the research institution with which you are affiliated 2) EC SESAM database NACLIM website (through Chiara) 3) EC OpenAIRE Orphan Repository Who deposits the article? 1)You 2) Chiara 3) You When? As soon as the paper is published

  14. Green OA : Self-archiving Make sure you are legally allowed to deposit the post-print version during the embargo period and after the embargo is over Which version? Final peer-reviewed manuscript= the POST-PRINT version Where to deposit? 1) Institutional repository of the research institution with which you are affiliated 2) EC SESAM database NACLIM website (through Chiara) 3) EC OpenAIRE Orphan Repository Who deposits the article? 1)You 2) Chiara 3) You When?
