Pre-Print Use of University of Texas Press Journals Content

A pre-print is defined as a working paper, either before submission or after submission but un-refereed.  With the exception of Information & Culture, authors retain the right to post a pre-print version of their article to their personal website and/or institutional repository and/or discipline-specific, not-for-profit server up to the time the article is accepted for publication.

Information & Culture authors are not required to remove the pre-print versions of their article on a personal website and/or institutional repository and/or discipline-specific, not-for-profit server, after publication.

All pre-prints should indicate on the article opening page that it is a “working paper.”

Post-Print Use of University of Texas Press Journals Content

A post-print is defined as the final manuscript draft as accepted for publication following peer review, but before the copyediting and proofreading correction process. Authors retain the right to make a post-print version of their article available on their personal website and/or their institutional repository and/or discipline-specific, not-for-profit server subject to the terms below.

All journals (except Information & Culture) allow authors to retain the right to upload their accepted post-print manuscript to their personal website and/or institutional repository and/or discipline-specific, not-for-profit server 12 months after the print publication date. Information & Culture permits authors to post their accepted post-print manuscript to their personal website and/or institutional repository and/or discipline-specific, not-for-profit server immediately after acceptance.

When uploading an accepted post-print manuscript, authors should use the following credit line: “This is a pre-copyedited version of an article accepted for publication in (journal title) following peer review. The definitive publisher-authenticated version is available through the University of Texas Press.”

The final published version of the article as it appears in all journals may not be deposited by authors on their personal website and/or institutional repository and/or discipline-specific, not-for-profit server. Published versions may be found on Project Muse and JSTOR.
