The Chemist’s Toolkit
1. Why should you care?2. What’s in the toolkit? Information on
Open Access Publishing Federal Funding reporting mandate from the NIH
Public Access Policy and others. Retaining rights to materials - Author Addenda forms. Copyright and creative commons licensing.
3. The benefits of having a toolkit4. Maintaining your toolkit: keeping up to date5. The Future: What to expect
1. Why Should you care?
Publishing models are changing.Copyright law and perceptions of ownership are
changing as everyone can access, modify and share information online.
Mandates from organizations and funding agencies are requiring researchers to post work online.
Technology tools can now allow your peers to rapidly share and distribute information.
Emphasis on globalism in student representation, research projects, and foundations.
2. What’s in the toolkit?

CC License Types
Attribution Lets others distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon your work, even commercially, as long
as they credit you for the original creation.Attribution Share Alike Lets others remix, tweak, and build upon your work even for commercial reasons, as long
as they credit you and license their new creations under the identical terms. This license is often compared to open source software licenses.
Attribution No Derivatives Allows for redistribution, commercial and non-commercial, as long as it is passed along
unchanged and in whole, with credit to you.Attribution Non-Commercial Lets others remix, tweak, and build upon your work non-commercially, and although their
new works must also acknowledge you and be non-commercial, they don’t have to license their derivative works on the same terms.
Attribution Non-Commercial Share Alike Lets others remix, tweak, and build upon your work non-commercially, as long as they
credit you and license their new creations under the identical terms. Others can download and redistribute your work just like the by-nc-nd license, but they can also translate, make remixes, and produce new stories based on your work. All new work based on yours will carry the same license, so any derivatives will also be non-commercial in nature.
Attribution Non-Commercial No Derivatives Allows others to download your works and share them with others as long as they mention
you and link back to you, but they can’t change them in any way or use them commercially. (most restrictive)
Digital Repositories
Subject Repositories (Preprint Archives) Mostly Scholarly Articles Contain manuscripts of completed, unpublished
articles Assume items are peer reviewed after submission
Institutional Repositories = Digital Repositories Scholarly Articles: Journals, Books Other creative output: audio, video, data, paper
reports Archival office and non-scholarly output: Newsletters,
Reports, Office Files
Subject Repositories

Nature Precedings All areas of science
Retaining Copyright – Author Addenda
Did you know signing a standard copyright transfer form for publishing journal articles limits your ability to Post published article on personal or campus websites Post pre-publications of article on personal or campus websites Deposit the article in a open access digital repository Make print or electronic copies for interlibrary loan, reserves, and e-reserves
An Author Addendum agreement permits additional publishing posting, and archiving rights to supplement a copyright transfer form.
Sample Author Addenda Science Commons – Scholar’s Copyright Addendum Engine SPARC Addendum to Publication Agreement University of Michigan Author’s Addendum
