National Repository
All articles must be archived, including those published in open access journals or through paid open access.
As of February 2025, employees affiliated solely with Oslo University Hospital (OUS) or other hospitals in the South-Eastern Norway Regional Health Authority (HSØ) face somewhat limited options for archiving, as health trusts typically do not have their own institutional repositories. The main options are:
- Have a co-author from the University of Oslo (UiO) or another institution in the higher education sector deposit the article.
- If you are part of an EU-funded research project, you can use the EU's general repository, Zenodo.
It is essential to deposit the correct version of the article, specifically the Author Accepted Manuscript (AAM) or the Version of Record (VoR), unless the article has been published in an OA journal or through paid Open Access. The University Library handles rights clearance when articles are archived in UiO’s repository, DUO, and has outlined the process for self-archiving (Norwegian).
Institutional repositories for health trusts are expected to be established by autumn 2025 through the National Repository Project (Nasjonalt vitenarkiv - Norwegian). Corresponding authors from the health trusts should seek to prepare for this by indicating the trusts policy for selfarchiving (when possible) and saving a copy of the AAM-version of the paper. For questions related to this process, please contact Pål Bakke in the CEO Executive Staff, Research Department at OUS.
