How can I change my publisher contract so I can submit my work to UVicSpace?
Answer
As an author, you naturally want your work to be read as widely as possible without barriers to access. To achieve this, you may need to negotiate changes to your publishing contract so you can retain certain use and distribution rights, including the right to archive in open access repositories like UVicSpace.
