1.1. Open Access Improvements

It is now possible to configure the Research Output editor to restrict Personal users and/or Editors of Research Outputs from deleting Electronic versions (files, DOIs, links) from Validated / Approved Research Output records. If the restriction is in place, users will continue to be able to edit the properties of individual electronic versions (e.g. Public access to file, license), but will not be able to simply delete them.
The configuration is available in Administrator > System settings > Publication - Allow Personal Users / Editor of Research output to delete electronic versions (files, DOIs, and links) on approved / validated research output records.
Roles affected: Personal Users, Editor of Research Outputs
In response to customer feedback, we have updated the process for reading 'Open Access' metadata tags on Publisher PDFs, such that Document version is no longer locked and is editable by users. Messaging has also been updated to advise users that the values embedded in the file may not always be correct. Associated documentation has been updated and is available here.
Roles affected: Personal Users, Editor of Research Outputs, Administrator of Research Outputs, Administrator
