Peer-reviewed journal articles should be registered by the authors themselves in CRISTin. Non-fiction books, textbooks, newspaper articles, lectures, informal essays and other publications that do not yield publication points are also registered by the authors in CRIStin. Authors register their own publications in CRIStin. If you register an article, remember to upload full text.
Authors of scientific monographs and articles in anthologies that yield publication points should deliver those to Stavanger University Library and mark them "suggestion for scientific registration in CRIStin". If it is not possible to deliver the publication itself to the library, documentation which clearly refers to the publication must be supplied. The books will be returned if that is required. The library will give feedback regarding the result of the evaluation.
