Content arrives in eScholarship from a variety of places:
- eScholarship submission system: Individual authors use eScholarship’s manual submission system to contribute items to specific publication series. Administrators of UC departments and research units also curate these series with this system.
- UC Publication Management System: The UC Publication Management System is used by UC faculty and researchers, Lawrence Berkeley Lab staff, and recipients of the UC Research Grants Program Office research awards to manage and deposit their articles to eScholarship in accordance with UC's open access policies.
- eScholarship journal management system: eScholarship journals use our customized and tightly integrated instances of Janeway for author submissions, peer review, manuscript management, and issue publishing.
- UC campuses Electronic Theses and Dissertations (ETDs): UC campuses make their students’ ETDs publicly available by authorizing eScholarship to automatically harvest their campus’ ETD collections. These collections are harvested by UC Library Search and are archived in UC's Merritt repository for long-term digital preservation.
