whose paper? our universities pay subscriptions for these journals and we even pay on top of that for the pages of our publications (even when they're not actually printed!), whilst we review papers for free! sounds like a well-validated way to use taxpayers' money to keep the expensive company cars etc. nice and shiny. why don't universities just require reimbursement for the time we invest to insure that the merchandise is up to standard? €100 per hour would be cheap. seems to me as though some capitalists need to add a few lines to their balance sheets.... best, jon

There are a lot of models here, but not necessarily well-validated. Anyway, if people want to read your papers and cannot get them from ResearchGate, I'm sure they can find them on another online collection, a hub of some sort ;) Cheers, Robbie > -----Original Message----- > From: Bernhard Rupp [mailto:hofkristall...@gmail.com] > Sent: Friday, June 29, 2018 13:23 > To: 'Robbie Joosten'; CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK > Subject: RE: [ccp4bb] Oxford University Press > > Agreed, but for 10 years old papers this seems a bit of overkill.... > > > > From: CCP4 bulletin board <CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK> On Behalf Of Robbie > Joosten > Sent: Friday, June 29, 2018 12:11 > To: CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK > Subject: Re: [ccp4bb] Oxford University Press > > > > Were they open access papers?
