Re: Publisher Constraints and the Version of Record



Here is the key assumption in Arthur Sale's posting:

Since the AM and the VoR differ in no essential respects (otherwise authors would be in arms), the citation advantage should trump prettiness.
If "prettiness" were indeed the only difference between the AM and VoR, do you really think publishers would be so generous about allowing the AM to be deposited in repositories? It just boggles my mind that discussions about OA keep making the assumption that copyediting does not occur or has no value.
