Researcher Essentials

Registering your publications

SCU academic and professional staff are required to register their publications for entry into the Research Management System IRMA for internal and external reporting purposes. 

There is more information on how to register publications and the reportable publication types on the SCU Research Publications website. 

Cross Connect

Cross Connect is the University's institutional repository. The purpose of Cross Connect is to:

  • showcase SCU research and researchers
  • provide open access to publications.

Make your author accepted manuscript available through the repository either by:

  • attaching the AAM to your submission to the Office of Research in addition to the publisher version when registering your publications
  • emailing the AAM to crossconnect@scu.edu.au if it already appears on your profile
  • retrospectively add it to your profile (log in to your profile to do this).

Library Systems staff will check the manuscript for compliance with copyright and publisher requirements (including embargo periods).
