When can an article be "withdrawn"?



Apologies for cross-posting:

Readers of this list may be interested in an editorial from the latest
issue of the Journal of the Medical Library Association, which discusses
the case last fall in which an article published in Human Immunology
(journal of the American Society of Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics)
was removed from Science Direct after publication, at the request of the
society.  The article is available from PubMed Central in either PDF
