Effective October 2, 2023, the National Science Foundation (NSF) updated the NSF Public Access Repository (NSF-PAR) system with a new, streamlined submission workflow enabling NSF award recipients to add and manage journal articles, conference papers, conference proceedings, datasets, and workshop reports as separate and distinct products, and allowing products with a digital object identifier (DOI) from Crossref.org or DataCite.org to integrate seamlessly into the NSF-PAR. There are no changes to NSF’s Public Access policy or project reporting requirements.

Here's what you need to know:

• Conference proceedings and workshop reports are new product types in the NSF-PAR. The NSF-PAR search and filter feature has been updated to include all five supported product types.
• The streamlined NSF-PAR workflow includes easy-to-use add, update, and delete functionality for each product type.
• Journal articles, conference papers, and conference proceedings can be added to the NSF-PAR with or without a DOI.
• Journal article and conference paper metadata auto-populated using a DOI or entered manually in the NSF-PAR will be auto-populated in NSF project reports. Dataset metadata entered in the NSF-PAR with a DOI will also be auto-populated in NSF project reports.

A new Adding Research Products to NSF-PAR and NSF Project Reports guide will be available on the Research.gov page. Visit the page for additional information including the released earlier this year and to learn more about open science.
