A brief description of the open access repository:

The SPARC Publication Addendum was created by the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC). SPARC works to enable the public sharing of research outputs and educational materials in order to democratize access to knowledge, accelerate discovery, and increase the return on our investment in research and education. Publishers often take more rights than are required for publication, so SPARC came up with a Publication Addendum that leaves more rights with the author than what traditional publication agreements do. As this agreement allows for the rights to reproduce, to distribute, to publicly perform, and to publicly display the Article in any medium for non-commercial purposes, this should allow you to deposit the work in the required place as required by the terms of the grant.
