- Read your publication agreement. You may already have the rights you need to archive your manuscript!
- If your publication agreement does not allow you to retain the necessary rights, talk to your publisher. For help, visit OA Resolution - Rights Help.
- If you cannot get the rights you need, request a waiver. For instructions, see OA Resolution - Requesting a waiver. Note: Even if you request a waiver, you still need to submit your manuscript - it just won't be made openly available.
- Sign and return your publication agreement.
