Yes, but many (most?) publishers now allow a version of the articles published in their journals to be posted on a personal or institutional web server as well. Some allow pdfs of the print version. Others allow only manuscripts of the pre-typeset version (depending on whether they view their typesetting as quality control or as value added). You have to read the contract you sign with the publisher carefully. They will not often volunteer this information. Regards, Chris -- Christopher D.
