ADDENDUM TO PUBLICATION AGREEMENT 7/15/2010
Author’s Retention of Rights
1. This Addendum modifies and supplements the attached publication agreement (the "Publication Agreement")
concerning the article titled ________________________________________________________(including any
supplementary materials, the "Article") in ________________________.
2. The parties to the Publication Agreement and to this Amendment are: ______________________(the University of
Kansas “Author”) and ___________________________________(the “Publisher”).
3. The parties agree that wherever there is any conflict between this Addendum and the Publication Agreement, the
provisions of this Addendum will control and the Publication Agreement will be construed accordingly.
4. Notwithstanding any terms in the Publication Agreement to the contrary, Author and Publisher agree as follows:
a. All of the terms and conditions of the Publication Agreement, including but not limited to all grants, agreements,
representations and warranties, are subject to and qualified by a non-exclusive license previously granted by
Author to the University of Kansas. Under that license, the University of Kansas may make the Article available in
an open repository and may exercise all rights under copyright relating to the Article, and may authorize others to
do the same, provided that the Article is not sold for a profit.
b. In addition to any rights retained by or granted to Author in the Publication Agreement, Author retains the non-
exclusive right to make the Article available and to exercise all rights under copyright relating to the Article, in any
medium, in connection with Author's teaching, conference presentations, lectures, other works of authorship,
and professional activities, and to authorize others to do the same.
c. Where applicable, all of the terms and conditions of the Publication Agreement, including but not limited to all
grants, agreements, representations and warranties, are subject to and qualified by nonexclusive rights previously
granted, or required to be granted, by Author to a funding entity that financially supported the research reflected
in the Article as part of an agreement between Author or Author's employing institution and such funding entity,
such as an agency of the United States government, and/or to Author’s employing institution.
d. Publisher agrees to provide to Author within 14 days of first publication and at no charge an electronic copy of the
published Article in a format, such as the Portable Document Format (.pdf), that preserves final page layout,
formatting and content of the published version. No technical restriction, such as security settings, will be
imposed to prevent copying or printing of that copy. The published version may be used in the exercise of the
rights and licenses referred to in the paragraphs above.
e. Nothing in the Publication Agreement will impose any limitation on the rights and licenses referred to in the
paragraphs above or any obligation in connection with their exercise. Neither the existence nor the exercise of
those rights and licenses will be deemed to violate any representation or warranty or to breach the Publication
Agreement.
Benefits to Publisher
Author will provide full bibliographic citation for the article in the open repository.
Agreement and Gratitude
Either publication of the Article or Publisher's signature below will constitute Publisher's agreement to this
Addendum. On behalf of University of Kansas administration and faculty, Author expresses gratitude to Publisher
for working in partnership to implement this University of Kansas Policy on Open Access.
