Do publishers allow authors to deposit published articles in Manchester eScholar?

If the author of a scholarly work has assigned the copyright of his/her work to their publisher and the copyright statement indicated that they are not allowed to deposit those materials in an institutional repository (or in another electronic source, such as a personal website) then they shouldn’t submit those materials to the repository. An increasing number of publishers do now allow some form of self-archiving. Authors should check any copyright agreements carefully before depositing work to Manchester eScholar to be sure of which version they are allowed to deposit. SHERPA/RoMEO is a service offering up-to-date listings of publisher’s copyright and self-archiving policies.
