Who Can Submit

The California Digital Library (CDL) publishes materials resulting from work conducted under the auspices of the CDL. eScholarship is the appropriate publication site for materials that speak directly or theoretically to issues related to any of CDL’s areas of expertise and engagement as well as to issues of interest to the broader digital library community. Operational and project documents are out of scope and more appropriately distributed through the CDL web site. For additional information, please contact help@escholarship.org.

Removal

A publication may be updated or removed from public view by sending a request to the system administrator at help@escholarship.org. However, a citation to the original version of the publication will always remain on the site.
