ELSEVIER FUNDING BODY AGREEMENTS & POLICIES says in its second paragraph:
"The agreements and policies are intended to support the needs of
Elsevier authors, editors and society publishing partners, and to
protect the quality and integrity of the peer-review process"
Does it mean that the $3,000 serve to pay the insurance of the "quality
and integrity of peer review? what if others do not pay? quality and
integrity is not protected? of course not, the quality and integrity is
given by authors, reviewers and scientific editors, who, generally
belong to academic and research institutions.

Hi Garrett,
It depends on the funding body -- I'm not clear which specific funding
council you have in mind. Those we already have agreements with are
described here:

Alicia,
This is the first time I've heard mention of Elsevier's Green OA
policy predicated on an institutional mandate. Up to now, IR deposit
of the author's peer-reviewed accepted draft on acceptance for
publication has been central to funding council policies on OA. Are
you saying that deposit on that basis alone contravenes Elsevier's
position in the absence of an institutional OA policy?

Hi all,
Just a quick point of clarification.... Elsevier doesn't forbid
posting if there is a mandate. We ask for an agreement with the
institution that has the mandate, and there is no cost for these
agreements. The purpose of these agreements is to work out a win-win
solution to find a way for the underlying journals in which academics
choose to publish to be sustainable even if there are high posting rates.
With kind wishes,

*Subject:* [GOAL] Why should publishers agree to Green OA?
I have some simple questions about Green OA. I don't know the answers.
* is there any *contractual* relationship between a Green-publisher
and any legal body? Or is Green simply a permission granted
unilaterally by publishers when they feel like it, and withdrawable
when they don't.
* if Green starts impacting on publishers' revenues (and I understand
this is part of the Green strategy - when we have 100% Green then
publishers will have to change) what stops them simply withdrawing the
permission? Or rationing it? Or any other anti-Green measure
* Do publishers receive any funding from anywhere for allowing Green?
Green is extra work for them - why should they increase the amount
they do?
* Is there any body which regularly "negotiates" with publishers such
as ACS, who categorically forbid Green for now and for ever.
Various publishers seem to indicate that they will allow Green as long
as it's a relatively small percentage. But, as Stevan has noted, if
your institution mandates Green, then Elsevier forbids it. So I cannot
see why, if Green were to reach - say - 50%, the publishers wouldn't
simply ration it and prevent 100%.
