  • Publications

The search bar on the home page allows you to search in all fields, or just title, abstract or keywords, and select specific authors and contributors.

Use the filter on the left hand side to refine your search.

You can choose types of documents, list of disciplines, select Open Access full text only, recently added references etc.

 

  • Read and download

You can read, download, copy, distribute and print the work as long as you agree: 

    • To indicate, in any quotation, the source of the work and the name(s) of the author(s).
    • Not to modify, transform or adapt the work without explicit authorisation from the author.
    • Not to use the work for commercial purposes.
    • Not to use the work in such a way as to harm its exploitation in other forms.
 
  • Copyright and Creative Commons (CC)

Contrary to popular belief, Open Access to documents does not change the rights that an author has over their publications. It is therefore not possible to do whatever you want with Open Access documents.

You must comply with the conditions prescribed by the CC license under which the document is published. LEARN +
