From the website:
"Open access can coexist with traditional publishing. IEEE will continue to allow authors to post manuscripts of their articles accepted by IEEE journals on their own Web sites or those of their employers."
Hence, it would be perfectly fine for me to publish on IEEE journals. Basically, if you want to read one of my articles you just have to look for it using google scholar. Is it that difficult?
- Lewisham 16y ago...but remember this is only because they have no choice. IEEE/ACM would love to remove these clauses, but they've realized if they do, that's going to be the match that lights the fuse for all-out academic rebellion. It's not like that's a gift or some evidence that they are in any way reasonable. They're totally aware of the precipitous situation they're in, they just don't want to/don't have the competency to fix their monetization strategy.
- alexqgb 16y agoThe fact that they're "granting you permission" to post your own paper, which you wrote at your own expense (or that of supporters you secured independently from the IEEE), and in which they have no legitimate copyright claim on your own website just underscores how dangerously close to the wind these guys are really sailing. Unless they're actually bribing tenure committees to maintain their exclusive (and totally unearned) hold on people's professional futures, it seems like they're one coordinated action away from a richly-deserved implosion.
- jokrausdu 16y agoI use this database to check on publisher permissions. http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo/search.php http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo/search.php Authors of IEEE articles can archive pre-print and post-print but they cannot archive publisher's version/PDF. And there are lots of conditions.
