Abstract

Lund University has no policies on electronic publishing or self-archiving. Neither does the university require any kind of annual standardized or centralized publication lists from faculties or departments. Electronic publishing and self-archiving is a very decentralized affair where departments or divisions make their own decisions. To increase the use of LU:research, the central university archive, and make more full text dissertations available The Library Head Office is working both towards the university administration to get policy decisions and towards the researchers to get their publications into the repository. In this project we wanted to reach new researchers and try to get their attention by giving them a very specific offer to self-archive named articles for them.
