The Open Research Repository collects Open Access scholarly works authored or co-authored while an author is affiliated with CEU.
CEU researchers are mandated to deposit an Open Access version of each of their scholarly articles in the CEU repository providing there is no legal prohibition against doing so. The mandated version of an article is the final, peer-reviewed author’s version, also known as the Author’s Accepted Manuscript (AAM).
In cases where the publisher policy does not allow the deposit of the Author’s Accepted Manuscript, the version submitted to the publisher (preprint) can be deposited instead.
What types of works are collected?
The following research outputs are encouraged to be deposited, if legally admissible. These may include, but are not limited to:
- Journal articles
- Book reviews, editorials
- Monographs (including translations into English, German and Hungarian)
- Book chapters
- Working papers
Only works by authors with CEU affiliation are accepted in the repository. Please do not submit works with a non-CEU affiliation.
What types of items should not be deposited?
The following types of items should not be deposited:
- Unpublished materials that have not been peer-reviewed
