Alterlab Preprint Deposition

alterlab-ieu/alterlab-preprint-deposition

Drives preprint deposition across servers (arXiv, bioRxiv, medRxiv, SSRN, OSF Preprints): picks the right server by field, prepares submission metadata, sets the license (arXiv offers CC BY/BY-SA/BY-NC-SA/BY-NC-ND 4.0, the arXiv non-exclusive license, or CC0; bioRxiv/medRxiv offer CC BY/BY-NC/BY-ND/BY-NC-ND/CC0 or No-reuse), maps arXiv category taxonomy, handles immutable versioning and preprint DOIs, checks a journal's preprint/self-archiving policy via the Sherpa Romeo v2 API, and links the posted preprint to the published article. Reuses alterlab-arxiv and alterlab-biorxiv for metadata and alterlab-open-science for data-repository choice. Use when depositing a preprint, choosing a preprint server, preparing an arXiv or bioRxiv submission, setting a preprint license, or checking journal preprint policy; for Zenodo/Dryad/Figshare data deposition prefer alterlab-open-science, for TÜBİTAK Aperta prefer alterlab-aperta. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
