Self Archiving Policy L

Author self-archiving policy

This journal does not permit self-archiving unless the article has been either published under an Open Access licence, or express permission has been obtained from Oxford University Press and the Learned Society.

Open Access

Authors who have agreed to publish their article on an Open Access basis, and who have paid any associated fees, are entitled to make their article publicly available according to the terms of their selected Open Access licence.

When sharing, distributing or reusing Open Access articles, the journal and OUP should be clearly attributed as the original place of publication and correct citation details should be given. Authors should also deposit the URL of their published article in any repository, in addition to the Version of Record.

When making their article available according to the terms of their Open Access licence, we strongly encourage authors of Open Access papers to deposit the version of record. This will guarantee that the definitive version is readily available to those accessing your article from such repositories, and means that your article is more likely to be cited correctly.

For articles published without an Open Access licence, or for reuses outside of the terms of an Open Access licence, express permission is required. If you wish to self-archive or reuse your article in this situation, please contact our Permissions Department ([email protected]) to request permission.
