In accordance with the KTH president’s decision V-2010-0482, aiming at making KTH research visible, all publications written by researchers in their capacity of KTH employees should be registered in DiVA.
The information in DiVA makes it possible to find the publication, not only in directly in DiVA, but also through search engines such as Google and Google Scholar.
DiVA can be used for open access publishing, which makes the publications more searchable and accessible.

The bibliographic information can be used for generating publication lists, importing records to reference management software and for bibliometric analyses.
Who should register?
It is the responsibility of every researcher to make sure that their own publications are registered in DiVA and that they are correctly registered.
Staff at the library imports publications from Web of Science and Scopus. Publications not covered by these databases must be registered by the authors themselves.
Log into DiVA and register your publications. Please note that help texts can be found in the registration form (marked with a question mark).
Please create or connect your ORCID-id.
If you have several publications registered in another database you can import them from there into DiVA, for example from Web of Science and Scopus.
Would you like to self-archive your publication? First, make sure you have the right to put a copy of your publication in DiVA, see Sherpa/Romeo. Please read our Open Access pages first. Your pdf will not be visible immediately after uploading it. Staff at the library will check publisher conditions etc, which may take a few days.
If you have written a compilation thesis or licentiate thesis you should first regiser the papers in DiVA. Search for the papers in DiVa first to see if they are already in DiVA. If not you register the information manually in DiVA or by import from for example Web of Science or Scopus. If your papers are unpublished please choose the same publication type as in the printed thesis for example Submitted, Manuscript etc.
Articles that are published open access can always be included as full text. If you have unpublished articles or manuscripts they should not be uploaded in full text into DiVA due to copyright issues.
