    Have you found that there’s peer-review included when it’s university published?

    Not comment-OP, but there are different levels:

    • “pre-print” means that it hasn’t been submitted yet, hasn’t been peer-reviewed yet, and hasn’t been accepted yet.
    • “post-print” means that it’s been peer-reviewed, revised, and the content is ready to publish, but it hasn’t been formatted to be in the journal.
    • “version of record” is the published version. this is called “camera-ready” if it’s waiting to be published.

    Depending on the contract signed, the academic scammers publishers will usually let the researcher publish the paper on their own web site or university site or repository like arxiv.org. If it’s the pre-print, it may be available before publication, but if it’s the post-print or version of record, this may be only after a certain period of time has passed.
