Good morning, colleagues,
Happy Open Access Week!
(Yes. It is Open Access Week <http://www.openaccessweek.org/>).
If you're an *ALJ* contributor and are looking to take this year's
celebrations beyond the usual riot of feasting and frenzied dancing, please
consider depositing the "author's accepted manuscripts" of your articles in
your local institutional repository.
CUP offers an enlightened policy for the *ALJ*: your IR can make your
manuscript text open access as soon as the formal "version of record"
appears online on the Cambridge Core
<https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/art-libraries-journal> platform.
Which is great!
The steps are easy.
1. *As soon* as your article is accepted for publication by Messrs.
Foden-Lenahan, Grandal Montero and Binkowski, find your local repository
and upload a copy of your "author's accepted manuscript." This is the final
*intellectual* version, incorporating all revisions resulting from peer
review or editorial comment, but before CUP has laid out or branded the
text. (You're visual people: see below.)

1.5. Unless you've arranged permissions to reproduce
copyright-protected illustrations beyond the "version of record," you might
replace them with DOI or other persistent open web links in your
manuscript.
2. Colleagues in your scholarly communications team will work their magic.
They live for this moment.
3. Your work will be eligible for submission to the REF.
4. More importantly, readers with an internet connection anywhere in the
world can benefit from your research.
Openly and accessibly yours,
Joseph
