Enhancing the visibility of your research output through self-archiving

Stellenbosch University's institutional policy on the self-archiving of research output is curated by the Library and Information Service.

This workshop will teach participants more about the policy and how to comply with the policy in order to improve access to and visibility of their research outputs.
