Apologies for cross-posting: Expand the visibility and reach of your work by making it available via SSOAR - Social Sciences Open Access Repository - www.ssoar.info <http://www.ssoar.info/> ! If you wish to make your documents available via a repository, there are a number of good reasons for choosing SSOAR: - SSOAR is geared towards a scholarly audience in the social sciences wishing to search quality-controlled content across disciplinary boundaries and to access documents directly and free of charge. - SSOAR is an important resource for German, English and Spanish-speaking social scientists who wish to make documents freely accessible to the research community in order to increase the visibility and citation frequency of their research papers. - SSOAR offers unrestricted world-wide access to full texts - all with a standard browser. - Each document has an individual URN (Uniform Resource Name), thereby facilitating reliable referencing adhering to scientific standards. - Additional subject metadata ensures that documents can be sought and found easily. A simple Google search request suffices. - Cross-linking with other resources such as portals (www.sowiport.de <http://www.sowiport.de/> ) and disciplinary databases enlarges the searchable content. - SSOAR is networked within the growing Open Access community and guarantees technological innovativeness. The document-deposit process comprises five easy steps and you can either self-archive your papers at: http://www.ssoar.info/ssoar/SuggestResource?domain=ssoar-typo3&lang=en Or we can archive the papers for you - if you have any questions relating to self-archiving, please contact Agnieszka Wenninger of the SSOAR team (agnieszka.wennin...@gesis.org <mailto:agnieszka.wennin...@gesis.org> ). I will be happy to give you advice and to assist you with the deposit process. We look forward to your submissions to SSOAR!
