<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I am trying to understand the business plan that Oxford University Press (OUP) has for the subscription journals of the Entomological Society of America (ESA). In doing so, I found notices of copyright on
abstracts of ESA articles from 1908 forward. For example, see this abstract of an article published in 1908 in ESA’s
