What about embargoes?

In most cases, publishers require an embargo period before you can self-archive your publications. The University of Groningen Library will make sure that the publisher’s requirements are observed. Your publication will be made publicly accessible after the embargo period has ended.

Exception: short publications
Based on the Taverne Amendment, the UG has decided to introduce the Open Access Scheme: disclosure of 'short' publications by UG staff, whereby publications by UG staff are automatically made available in the institutional repository six months after publication. This concerns the Publisher's Version, also known as the Version of Record. This is irrespective of the embargo period used by the publisher.
For more information, see: Open Access - Taverne.
