‘

The Sherpa RoMEO site offers information about publishers’ policies with respect to self-archiving pre-print and post-print research papers.  The current funding stream supports the following activities:

· scoping and setting up a strand of work, within the proposed interim repository, to maintain and develop the Sherpa/RoMEO database;
· maintaining the Sherpa/RoMEO database journal-level information;
· developing the Sherpa/RoMEO database to indicate which journals have policies that allow authors to deposit their papers in accordance with the Wellcome Trust Grant conditions.’
