Basic principles

General Instructions

MPDL staff is strongly encouraged to deposit all material meant for public distribution on MPG.PuRe, the institutional repository of the Max Planck Society.

Please be aware that all documents deposited in PuRe are published to a wide audience and that at least the corresponding metadata records will be shared without any limits. You therefore should be sure that the deposited publications are relevant for global distribution - especially those documents with direct affiliation to the MPDL.

In case you're uncertain about a publication's relevance, please discuss this issue with your colleagues before depositing in PuRe.

Workflow

• Authors of the MPDL can send their publications to Katrin or the PuRe Support Team for submission.
• Alternatively, the publications can be deposited by the authors themselves using their own account.
• Please avoid duplicates by checking the existing data before submission.
• There will be no QA check by moderators before the release of an item. Please notice that released items are visible to the public and will be indexed by Google etc.
• Authors should communicate their submissions (depositing activity) within their team/department.

Material to be deposited

• All material that is meant for distribution and has been communicated outside the MPDL must be deposited on the institutional repository. This includes articles or talks and posters presented to a broader audience (several non MPDL members) - Context: "Publications..."
• Optional: Internal material of general interest can be deposited by choice of the creator - Context: "Publications..."
• Optional: External publications by MPDL staff - Context: "External Publications..."
• Optional: External publications by non-MPDL authors in case of general interest for the MPDL (e.g. Berlin Conference papers) - Conext: "External Publications..."

• All sensitive data (staffing, business internals etc.) has to be removed by the creator before the document is deposited.
• Other material can be stored on the MPDL share drive (\\filesvr01\share\mpdl).

File Formats / Access Levels

• PDF versions should be preferred to .doc, .ppt, .xls etc.
• Visibility: MPG wide access or Public access, according to the audience addressed by the material.

Transfer of documents

In case a MPDL member is requested to share presentation material it is strongly recommended to provide only links to the document on the institutional repository instead of sending the corresponding files. In addition, conference organizers are asked to rather use this link than store the document locally.

Use of the "German Creative Commons Licences by" (CC by) is strongly recommended, see MPDL License for further reading. A small logo can be found at: http://i.creativecommons.org/l/by/4.0/88x31.png
