Can I post my Elsevier article to my Institutional Repository?

Last updated on November 17, 2025

Under our sharing policy, Elsevier journal authors may post the preprint or accepted manuscript version of their article, but not the final published journal article, to their institutional repository. The article won’t be made public until after the embargo period.

You may include a link to the article as it appears on Elsevier’s ScienceDirect website via the DOI.

For more information on the various ways in which Elsevier journal authors may share their research, please visit our Sharing policy page.

For any further clarifications, you can submit your query via our online form.
