Rockefeller UP adopts CC licenses Emma Hill and Mike Rossner, You wrote it; you own it! Journal of Cell Biology, April 30, 2008. An editorial. Excerpt:
Comment. What's remarkable about this new policy is that these are non-OA or subscription-based journals. They aren't the first subscription journals to remove price barriers after six months, but I believe they are the first to remove some permission barriers as well. Kudos to all involved in the decision, especially Mike Rossner, Executive Director of Rockefeller University Press. Update. I said that the three RUP journals weren't the first subscription journals to remove price barriers after six months. But I just learned from the press that they were among the first, having adopted this policy in January 2001. |
