Who can deposit
Deposit rights are granted by the repository team for each collection. If you would like to deposit work and do not yet have an account or permission for the right collection, contact the repository team.
What you will need
- The final file(s). PDF is preferred for text documents because it preserves layout and is widely readable. Other formats (images, audio, video, data) can also be deposited.
- Title and authors, written as they appear on the work.
- Date of issue — at least the year the work was published or presented.
- Abstract and subject keywords, which make the work much easier to find.
- Publication details where relevant: publisher, journal, series, ISBN/ISSN or DOI.
Copyright and permission
Only deposit work you have the right to share. If the work was published elsewhere, check the publisher's policy on depositing in institutional repositories. When you submit, you grant the university a non-exclusive licence to preserve and distribute the work; you keep your copyright.
If a work cannot be made public immediately, ask about an embargo — the record can be visible while the files stay closed until a set date.
What happens after you submit
- Your submission is checked by the collection's reviewers.
- They may accept it, correct the description, or return it to you with comments.
- Once accepted, the work appears in the repository with a permanent link you can cite and share.
