The terms pre-print and post-print can be ambiguous as they mean different things to different people which can cause confusion. For the purposes of uploading into RaY we use the same definitions as the Sherpa/Romeo site which lists publisher copyright and self-archiving policies for individual journal titles.
Pre-print
Also known as the Author's original manuscript. This is the author's version of a paper which has not been through peer-review or had any copy-editing or formatting done by the publisher.
Post-print
Also known as the Author accepted manuscript. This is the version of the paper which has been through peer-review, with revisions, but before any publisher copy-editing or formatting.
For more information see the glossary in Your guide to RaY and Open Access. If you have a query about which version of your article you need to upload to the repository contact RaY for advice.
