You are not alone if knowing which version of the article is the one that is allowed by your publisher. Even the best of us find the myriad of conditions complicated and confusing (see Sherpa RoMEO's definition). Remember we will check each item as they are uploaded. and we will contact you if we think we need another version. Most of the time your accepted manuscript is what we need. NZ librarians have created a good document with advice on versions, with guidelines on how you might manage your manuscripts to ease the process :the LCONZ Versions Guide. |
