Dear Tom This might have something to do with business plan, even though it is at the very bottom of the article landing page

In doing so, I found notices of copyright on abstracts of ESA articles from 1908 forward. For example, see this abstract of an article published in 1908 in ESA’s Annals: http://aesa.oxfordjournals.org/content/1/3/179. You will see under the title of the article a DOI followed by “First published online: 1 September 1908”, a claim that is difficult to square with the history of the internet. · Beneath the abstract is this claim to copyright: “© 1908 Entomological Society of America.” Question: Do those who make PDFs of journal articles that were never copyrighted have a valid claim to a copyright of their PDF of the article?
