A new Research Publication Policy (DOCX - 96 KB) was implemented on 20 January 2025. Together with amendments to the Code of Practice for Research, this new policy enables the introduction of rights retention at the University of Birmingham. Both policies are currently available for review prior to final implementation and so should not be shared beyond the University.
To support the launch of the new policy, Libraries and Learning Resources will host a series of 30 minute ‘rights retention information and Q&A sessions’ through February and March, 2025. Please complete our sign up form to attend a session.
- Session 1: Tuesday 28 January at 12:30
- Session 2: Wednesday 12 February at 12:00
- Session 3: Monday 24 February at 12:00
- Session 4: Thursday 13 March at 13:30
- Session 5: Friday 28 March at 13:00
