TY - JOUR AB - <strong>INTRODUCTION</strong> There is a growing body of accepted author manuscripts (AAMs) in national, professional, and institutional repositories. This study seeks to explore librarian attitudes about AAMs and in what contexts they should be recommended. Particular attention is paid to differences between the attitudes of librarians whose primary job responsibilities are within the field of scholarly communications as opposed to the rest of the profession. <strong>METHODS</strong> An Internet survey was sent to nine different professional listservs, asking for voluntary anonymous participation. <strong>RESULTS</strong> This study finds that AAMs are considered an acceptable source by many librarians, with scholarly communications librarians more willing to recommend AAMs in higher-stakes contexts such as health care and dissertation research. <strong>DISCUSSION</strong> Librarian AAM attitudes are discussed, with suggestions for future research and implications for librarians.
