Subject: Cambridge policy change

Hi all,

Just spotted this today: Cambridge Journals have apparently changed their
overall green OA policy sometime in the past few months (there's no date on
the new policy that I can see to indicate when it was brought in, and I
can't find an announcement)

July:
<a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20140714210504/http://journals.cambridge.org/acti">http://web.archive.org/web/20140714210504/http://journals.cambridge.org/acti</a>
on/displaySpecialPage?pageId=4608
Now: <a href="http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displaySpecialPage?pageId=4608">http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displaySpecialPage?pageId=4608</a>

You used to be able to post the version of record to an institutional
repository with a twelve-month embargo, but this has been altered to
"abstract only". The AAM used to have no embargo, and this has now been
altered to six months after publication. The new policy is undated, and they
haven't updated the "Copyright and Repositories" agreement, which still
lists the old terms:

<a href="http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displaySpecialPage?pageId=4676">http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displaySpecialPage?pageId=4676</a>

It's still RCUK-compliant, but it's a bit frustrating - Cambridge had had
one of the better self-deposit policies.
