A16.5 Publication and Dissemination of Research Outputs
A16.5.1 All ARC-funded research projects must comply with the ARC Open Access Policy on the dissemination of research findings, which is available at www.arc.gov.au. In accordance with this policy, any publications arising from a Project must be deposited into an open access institutional repository within a twelve month period from the date of publication. When depositing publications in an institutional repository the ARC Project ID should be included in the metadata.
A16.5.2 Researchers and institutions have an obligation to care for and maintain research data in accordance with the NHMRC/ARC/UA Australian Code for the Responsible Conduct of Research (2007). The ARC considers data management planning an important part of the responsible conduct of research and strongly encourages the depositing of data arising from a Project in an appropriate publically accessible subject and/or institutional repository.
A16.5.3 The ARC encourages all researchers applying for funding to have an ORCID identifier.
