Manage Your Research Output @ Lingnan Scholars
The following pages provide a brief introduction on how to add and manage your research outputs in Lingnan Scholars. The guide is divided into five parts:
University’s Policy on Public Access of Research Outputs
According to Lingnan University’s Policy on Research, Knowledge Transfer and Intellectual Property, Clause 4.6 – Public access
“The University reserves the right to require the deposit of all published papers arising from funded research in the University’s institutional repository (IR)… with a view to maximizing public access to and public benefit from research findings…If the journal does not provide open access, the University may accept placing some version (preprint or postprint) of the paper in its IR. The same arrangement applies to other forms of research output”
You can deposit your full-text to Lingnan Scholars (subject to Publishers’ Open Access Policy). For details, please refer:
