RoMEO: Now with 400+ Publisher Self-Archiving Policies
SHERPA's RoMEO service now contains over 400 publisher self-archiving policies.
Here's an excerpt from the announcement:
The RoMEO service, provided by the award winning SHERPA Partnership, uses a simple colour-code to classify policies and inform authors of what can be done with their articles, and offers users the ability to:
- View summaries of publishers' copyright policies in relation to self-archiving
- View if publisher policies comply with funding regulations, as some publishers are too restrictive and cannot be used to publish funded research
- To search journal and publisher information by Journal Title, Publisher Name and ISSN
RoMEO is seen as an essential resource by many in the Open Access community. RoMEO is funded by JISC and the Wellcome Trust. Journal information is kindly provided by the British Library's Zetoc service hosted by MIMAS
