The University of Huddersfield ePrints Repository was the electronic archive of University’s research outputs from 2007 until 2017.

In December 2017, Pure became the University’s research repository for Academic staff and from September 2022 research outputs (including PhD theses) by Postgraduate researchers will also be added to PURE.

Outputs from other University staff can still be added to ePrints.

An increasing number of funding bodies now have policies in place to maximise the dissemination of the research they fund.

These policies are a condition of grant and increasingly require peer-reviewed research outputs to be made freely available to the public in full at the earliest possible date. Different funders have different requirements, but these aims can often be achieved either by archiving publications in the University’s Repository, ARK, or a subject-based repository such as UK PubMed Central

It is important that you are fully informed about this before submitting manuscripts to any publishers. Guidance on the requirements of each funding body is available at JULIET, which provides summaries of funding agencies’ grant conditions on self-archiving of research publications and data.

JULIET assigns Open Access ticks () for the key conditions that should ideally be met for each type of policy. http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/juliet
