Michael Carroll has brought up some good questions about the details. I'd like to check the details, too, but can't find them.. Is there a URL for the announcement and preferably links to details? I can't see one this morning on the Taylor & Francis website: http://www.taylorandfrancis.com/
Jennifer - I would also be very interested in hearing how this announcement impacts the other "brands" of T&F's parent company, informa.plc. One specific question is about how this new program will intersect with informa.plc's commercial document delivery services (sales of articles, reprints, etc.), and also sub-licensing of the same. For the benefit of list members who may be less familiar with the larger company that owns Taylor & Francis and its business operations, here are two examples of these services. informa healthcare - e.g. - "purchase online journal content by article", at: http://informahealthcare.com/ Reprint (reseller) adds informa healthcare titles to document delivery service: "January 5, 2010âReprints Desk, Inc.®, the content workflowcompany, today announced an agreement with Informa plc (INF.LN) that enables the companyto deliver individual Informa articles in PDF and paper format from more than 1,000 peer-reviewed scholarly journals. The agreement with Informa Healthcare and Life Sciences titles,along with previously signed agreement with Taylor & Francis, means that Reprints Desk now has formal agreements with the worldâs five largest commercial publishers of peer-reviewed scientific, technical, and medical (STM) journals".
