Does s.id replace a university repository?
No. s.id only makes the destination URL shorter. Documents, academic metadata, access rights, and archives remain managed by the source repository or service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the full manuscript be shared?
Make sure you have the right to share it and follow the policies of the university, journal, publisher, and other involved parties. Do not change access settings without permission.
Can the link be password protected?
Link-protection features are available on selected plans, but they do not replace repository access controls. Use the source service's permissions as the primary protection.
