Q. Why is there a preprint or postprint in InK when there is already a published version of my article?

For a published journal article, the Library checks SHERPA/ROMEO for the version that can be archived in InK and consults the faculty to place the appropriate version in InK.

Many publishers allow one of the following versions in a repository:

• published version
• postprint or author's final version after peer review but before publisher’s copy-editing or formatting
• preprint version prior to peer review and publishing
