Get Published: Task Six: Post and Promote Your Work!

So you’ve spent a lot of time researching, writing, and publishing your scholarship.  Wouldn’t it be nice if someone read it?  The final task of Hunter Library's Get Published series focuses on posting your work to the institutional repository (NC DOCKS), which is as easy as sending an email, and the various methods for promoting your work.

Get Published, Task 5: Negotiate Your Author Rights

When your submission is accepted for publication, there are two things to do right away: 1) Celebrate! 2) Negotiate your rights as the author.  Task 5 will help you work with your publisher to retain your author rights. The guide will explain why this is important and will provide specific instructions (and a sample form) for adding a copyright addendum to your contract.
