On the list of publishers at: http://romeo.eprints.org/publishers.html is it the case that any publisher that is green is also pale-green? Just a fine point. Thanks
[Reply: Not necessarily, but it does not matter much. Open Access is about postprints, so if a journal is postprint green, it's as green as it needs to be, and as green as 100% OA needs it to be. The unrefereed preprint is an added bonus to OA. All authors may self-archived their pre-refereeing preprints without needing the green light from anyone. But it is always more encouraging to an author if the publisher endorses preprint self-archiving too. http://www.eprints.org/self-faq/#publisher-forbids -- S.H.] -- Brian Simboli Science Librarian Library & Technology Services E.W.
