Institution's/Department's OA Self-Archiving Policy
To assist the University of Pretoria in providing open access to scholarly
articles resulting from research done at the University, supported by public
funding, staff and students are *required* to:

-- submit peer-reviewed postprints* + the metadata of their articles to
UPSpace, the University's institutional repository, *AND*
-- give the University permission to make the content freely available and
to take necessary steps to preserve files in perpetuity.

Postprints are to be submitted *immediately* upon acceptance for
publication.

The University of Pretoria *requires* its researchers to comply with the
policies of research funders such as the Wellcome Trust with regard to open
access archiving. Postprints of these articles are not excluded from the UP
mandate and should first be submitted as described in (1). Information on
funders' policies is available athttp://www.sherpa.ac.uk/juliet/.

<http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/juliet/.%3Cbr%3E%3Cbr%3E>Access to the full text of
articles will be subject to publisher permissions. Access will not be
provided if permission is in doubt or not available. In such cases, an
abstract will be made available for external internet searches to achieve
maximum research visibility. Access to the full text will be suppressed for
a period if such an embargo is prescribed by the publisher or funder.

The Open Scholarship Office will take responsibility for Adhering to
archiving policies of publishers and research funders, and managing the
system's embargo facility to delay public visibility to meet their
requirements.

The University of Pretoria strongly *recommends* that transfer of copyright
be avoided. Researchers are *encouraged* to negotiate copyright terms with
publishers when the publisher does not allow archiving, reuse and sharing.
This can be done by adding the official UP author addendum to a publishing
contract.

The University of Pretoria *encourages* its authors to publish their
research articles in open access journals that are accredited.
