Abstract
How to Determine Copyright at Criminology Journals
Highlights
A big part of my proposal is to publicly and freely share papers accepted for publication, known as “postprints.” That strategy is cheaper than paying to make your work Open Access (OA), and sidesteps the accessibility problem of publishing in paywalled outlets
An outlet’s copyright specifies whether, how, and when you can make a work OA. This information is needed to make OA an important part of deciding where to publish; and, after a work is accepted for publication, to legally maximize its accessibility
You will need to follow the breadcrumbs from its website to the more general publisher website. (Short tutorial videos are at the end of this article.) Either way, DIY tends to be slower and harder than using Sherpa Romeo and SYP
Summary
This article is meant to minimize your time, effort, and uncertainty in determining copyright at criminology journals.[1]. This is crucial to legally make your articles free to everyone; that is, Open Access (OA). I describe four ways to determine copyright. But they differ in benefits and costs
