Researchers should deposit published articles or final manuscripts into the institutional repository of the research institution with which they are affiliated.

If this is not possible, they should identify an appropriate subject based/thematic repository. A relevant repository can be found through:

1. Directory of Open Access Repositories http://www.opendoar.org/find.php
2. Registry of Open Access Repositories http://roar.eprints.org/
3. Browsing the list of open access disciplinary repositories in the Open Access Directory (OAD): http://oad.simmons.edu/oadwiki/Disciplinary_repositories

If the researcher’s institution doesn’t have an open access institutional repository and if there is no relevant open access subject repository the researcher can deposit the article in the OpenAIRE Orphan Repository: http://openaire.cern.ch/.

Any questions regarding compliance with the EC and ERC Open Access mandates can be put to the OpenAIRE Online Helpdesk.
