Green open access through self-archiving was initially enabled through <a href="/wiki/Institutional_repositories" class="mw-redirect" title="Institutional repositories">institutional</a> or <a href="/wiki/Disciplinary_repositories" class="mw-redirect" title="Disciplinary repositories">disciplinary repositories</a>, as a growing number of universities adopted policies to encourage self-archiving. Self-archiving repositories do not peer-review articles, though they may hold copies of otherwise peer-reviewed articles. Self-archiving repositories also expect that the author who self-archives has the necessary rights to do so, as copyright may have been transferred to a publisher. Therefore it may only be possible to self-archive the <a href="/wiki/Preprint" title="Preprint">preprint</a> of the article.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Implementation">Implementation</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Self-archiving&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Implementation"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/List_of_copyright_policies_of_academic_publishers" class="mw-redirect" title="List of copyright policies of academic publishers">List of copyright policies of academic publishers</a></div> <p>Whereas the right to self-archive <a href="/wiki/Postprint" title="Postprint">postprints</a> is often a copyright matter (if the rights have been transferred to the publisher), the right to self-archive preprints is merely a question of journal policy.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>A 2003 study by Elizabeth Gadd, Charles Oppenheim, and Steve Probets of the Department of Information Science at <a href="/wiki/Loughborough_University" title="Loughborough University">Loughborough University</a> analysed 80 <a href="/wiki/Copyright_policies_of_academic_publishers" title="Copyright policies of academic publishers">journal publishers' copyright agreements</a> and found that 90 percent of publishers asked for some form of copyright transfer and only 42.5 percent allowed self-archiving in some form.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 2014 the SHERPA/Romeo project recorded that of 1,275 publishers 70 percent allowed for some form of self-archiving, with 62 percent allowing both pre and postprint self-archiving of published papers.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 2017 the project recorded that of 2,375 publishers 41 percent allowed pre and postprint to be self-archived. 33 percent only allowed the self-archiving of the postprint, meaning the final draft post-refereeing. 6 percent of publishers only allowed self-archiving of the preprint, meaning the pre-refereeing draft.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Publishers such as <a href="/wiki/Cambridge_University_Press" title="Cambridge University Press">Cambridge University Press</a><sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> or the <a href="/wiki/American_Geophysical_Union" title="American Geophysical Union">American Geophysical Union</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> endorse self-archiving of the <a href="/wiki/Version_of_record" title="Version of record">final published version</a> of the article, not just peer-reviewed final drafts. </p><p>Locations for self-archiving include <a href="/wiki/Institutional_repository" title="Institutional repository">institutional repositories</a>, <a href="/wiki/Disciplinary_repository" title="Disciplinary repository">subject-based repositories</a>, personal websites, and <a href="/wiki/Social_networking" class="mw-redirect" title="Social networking">social networking</a> websites that target researchers.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_13-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Some publishers attempt to impose embargoes on self-archiving; embargo-lengths can be from 6–12 months or longer after the date of publication (see <a href="/wiki/SHERPA/RoMEO" class="mw-redirect" title="SHERPA/RoMEO">SHERPA/RoMEO</a>).
