Glossary (by SHERPA)
In the context of Open Access, a pre-print is a draft of an academic article or other publication before it has been submitted for peer-review or other quality assurance procedure as part of the publication process. Pre-prints cover initial and successive drafts of articles, working papers or draft conference papers. A post-print is the final version of an academic article or other publication, after it has been peer-reviewed and revised into its final form by the author. As a general term, this covers both the author’s final version and the version as published, with formatting and copy-editing changes in place.
