It has covered problems of stock verification, procedures and methods of stock verification and finally solutions.

It then asks whether they would be sufficient to cover gold open access payments for all those papers that authors deposited in the institutional repository and that were subsequently published in journals of the three publishers. For Elsevier and Springer it would work, but for Wiley its more iffy. It's very important and interesting work. -- Cheers, Thomas Krichel http://openlib.org/home/krichel skype:thomaskrichel -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
