Jeffrey,
All research articles in BMC journals are OA, BOAI-compliant CC-BY. A few
journals (six of them, to
beprecise, http://arthritis-research.com/ , http://breast-cancer-research.com/, h
ttp://ccforum.com/ ,http://genomebiology.com/ , http://genomemedicine.com/ ,Â
and http://stemcellres.com/ ) contain non-research articles,
e.g. commissioned Reviews, Commentaries, Meeting reports, Viewpoints, and
those articles â only those â are subject to a subscription charge.

Thanks both of you,
This is a good illustration that Open Content Mining does not necessarily all of
the lierature to be fully CC-BY. It requires clear labelling of the subset that
is BOAI-compliant. There is enough material - I believe - in BMC and PLoS papers
to develop some useful science. And the toll-access journals will miss out on
the citations.
This is the problem with UK/PMC (as Casey Bergman and others have pointed out) -
it is difficult to find the content that is minable other than BMC and PLoS.
