Author rights: subscription articles

IOP grants back certain rights to authors to make limited use of an article published under the subscription model.

Authors have varying depositing rights for the Author’s Original/Preprint as set out expressly in the preprint pre-publication policy, copyright form you signed and also the author rights policy which applies to the particular journal in which the article was published.

Authors also have varying depositing rights for the Accepted Manuscript in non-commercial repositories and non-commercial scientific social networks. The rights you have as an author are those rights set out expressly in the copyright form you signed and also the author rights policy which applies to the particular journal in which the article was published.

Some of these rights only apply after the end of the applicable Embargo Period.

For specific information on your depositing rights as an author, as well as any reuse rights, ensure you check the copyright form you signed for the article and also the journal’s author rights policy. Please refer to our Author Rights Policy page.  If this does not answer the author rights query you have, please contact permissions@ioppublishing.org.
