*** Apologies for cross posting ***

SHERPA is pleased to announce that a new Hungarian language version of its
RoMEO database is now available at:

http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo/?la=hu

The RoMEO interface has already been translated into Hungarian, and our
Hungarian partners HUNOR have started adding RoMEO data directly for
Hungarian publishers and journals. Existing RoMEO data for other publishers
is in the process of being translated.

We are grateful to our colleagues in HUNOR for translating the original
English into Hungarian.

Portuguese and Spanish versions of RoMEO were released in 2010 and 2011
respectively, and SHERPA is working on further language versions for
release in the future. Please contact us if you are interested in any
specific languages and would like to help with translations.

About RoMEO

RoMEO is the key database of publisher's open access policies, used
worldwide by repository administrators and academics to check their rights
to self-archive their publications. RoMEO is currently funded by JISC. In
addition to our own journals database, journal information is kindly
provided by: the British Library's Zetoc service hosted by MIMAS; DOAJ, a
service from Lund University Libraries, and Entrez hosted by NCBI.

About HUNOR

The HUNOR (HUNgarian Open Repositories) consortium was established by the
libraries of Hungarian higher education institutions and the Library of the
Hungarian Academy of Sciences to advance national open access practices (
http://www.open-access.hu/).

The members of HUNOR are dedicated to promoting Hungarian research both
nationally and internationally and to achieving effective dissemination of
scientific outputs through the implementation of a national infrastructure
of open access repositories. Other activities include the operation of a
methodology centre, adopting international know-how and standards, the
establishment of complementary scientific communication channels, and
international relations. HUNOR is coordinated by the National and
University Library of University of Debrecen (http://www.lib.unideb.hu/).
