CEU ReI is the digital archive of the San Pablo CEU University Foundation and collects the documents that are the result of the research and academic activity of the San Pablo-CEU, Cardenal Herrera-CEU and Abat Oliba CEU Universities, in order to gather, preserve and disseminate them in open access.
Any professor or researcher belonging to Fundación Universitaria San Pablo CEU can send their publications to be accessible in CEU ReI.
To do this, first of all, it is advisable to know the policies of the publishers where they have been published and under what conditions they allow open access. This can be done through the websites Dulcinea (Spanish publications) and Sherpa/Romeo (foreign publications).
The next step is to authorize Fundación Universitaria San Pablo CEU to upload the publications to CEU ReI by signing a contract. You can request an appointment for consultation through [email protected]
