who are authors or co-authors must archive their publications and
documents in RepositoriUM at University of Minho Institutional
Repository, to be made available in open access with the following
exceptions: - Documents whose availability in open access may
constitute an infraction to the licence granted to third parties
(editors, etc.) by the author(s) or by University of Minho, that
contain confidential matters or are intended for commercialization
(books, etc.), will not be available in open access in RepositoriUM,
but only referenced with the traditional metadata, or made available
in restricted access to the University of Minho network; b) The
organisational units (research centers, departments/schools) must
sign and adopt self-archive policies for the scientific output of
their members, based in the sample attached to the present

(government of University) will provide a financial supplement to

the policy of open access in RepositoriUM.
