About the Online Paper Repository:
The AERA Online Paper Repository is an open-access clearinghouse with abstracts of all scientific presentations given at AERA annual meetings since 2010. More than half of these records include full-text papers voluntarily contributed to the repository by Annual Meeting presenters. AERA encourages all presenters to make their full-text papers available to the repository as a way to distribute their research more broadly.
For scholars, students, and other users, the repository:
-
Offers a new opportunity for broader access to information presented at AERA Annual Meetings
-
Serves as a reference on current scholarship and research
-
Outlines guidelines for citing scholarship presented at Annual Meetings
For presenters, the repository:
- Allows presentations to be shared in a new format and reaches a broader audience than those attending the session
- Records in a permanent online archive the full-text of the presentations
- Enables reporting of subsequent publication of the research by allowing the addition of citation information, a journal URL, or a digital object identifier (DOI)
