Can I submit my work for publication to a journal or other publication if it has been published in Bow Valley College's institutional respository?
Answer
Yes, because you retain copyright of your work after it is published in the institutional repository, you have the rights to submit your work to a journal or any other type of publication.
Please note that journals typically allow authors to publish a pre-print version of an article, which has been through the peer review process but not officially published by the journal.
