A. CHANGE THE ENTIRE SECTION... 4.3 Online Access Management TO... 2.3 Online Access and Archiving Policies [INSERT INTO STEP TWO, AS THIS IS POLICY FIRST OFF] Online Access Policy ( ) The journal will require subscriptions to access some or all of its online content. [THIS CAUSES SUBSCRIPTION MANAGER AND SUBSCRIPTIONS UNDER MANAGEMENT PAGES TO APPEAR] ( ) The journal will provide open access to its contents, with the following Open Access Policy appearing in About the Journal (sample provided).

Author Self-Archiving Policy The majority of journals, whether subscription or open access, now grant authors the right to self-archive pre-print and/or post-print copies of their articles in institutional respositories and on their own websites. To review other journal and publisher policies, see SHERPA/RoMEO [link to http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo.php]. [ ] Permit author self-archiving under the following terms, which will appear as the Author Self- Archving Policy in About the Journal (sample provided). [While this journal requires of authors the right of first publication as a condition of publishing a work, it alllows authors to retain copyright over their work, which includes the right to post working-paper versions, preprints, and postprints of the work in institutional repositories or on their own websites, with a complete bibliographic reference to this journal once it has been accepted for publication.This form of open access is associated with increased readership and citation levels.] B. http://pkp.sfu.ca/ojs/demo/present/index.php/demojournal/manager/subscriptionPolicies CHANGE... Open Access Options For Subscription Journals Subscription journals can provide "delayed open access" and/or "author self-archiving" (which increase readership and citation of content). The selected policies will appear in About the Journal. Delayed Open Access With delayed open access, editors are still able to designate specific articles within an issue for immediate open access. TO... Delayed Open Access for Subscription Journals [TITLE] With delayed open access, readers are permitted open access to past issues of the journal some months after publication.

Created attachment 123 [details] Layout, wording, etc. of Access Policy Setup Options
Start over. The uploaded document replaces Setup 4.3, which it completely displaces (and moves to Step 2.3). In addition, this means deleting the misplaced section on Open Access Options For Subscription Journals at... http://pkp.sfu.ca/ojs/demo/present/index.php/demojournal/manager/subscriptionPolicies
Created attachment 136 [details] Open Access button: from MJ; as currently used by PLoS Attached an "open access" logo; from MJ; as currently used by PLoS.
Created attachment 135 [details] Open Access button: orange/grey style similar to rss buttons Attached an "open access" logo in the rss style of web buttons.
Created attachment 137 [details] Creative Commons button: orange/grey style similar to rss buttons
Created attachment 138 [details] Creative Commons button (larger): orange/grey style similar to rss buttons
Created attachment 139 [details] Creative Commons button (black): orange/grey style similar to rss buttons
Created attachment 140 [details] Creative Commons button (black, larger): orange/grey style similar to rss buttons
Created attachment 141 [details] Creative Commons button: (text only) orange/grey style similar to rss buttons
Created attachment 156 [details] Creative Commons button: (text only) New and compact from the Creative Commons site. I like these new ones. They're more compact and similar in style to other buttons.
After discussions with BioMed Central and PLoS, I would like ot recommend to journals that they go with the attribution only CC license, to ensure the widest distribution and reuse of journal content. This would call for modifying the new nifty CC icons that are provided with OJS (which currently have the "no commercial use" included) simplifying them to attribution only (although users are free to adapt their own CC license variation, and to import the icon code for that variation.)
John, the CC stuff is also addressed in bug #2495 in a conflicting way...
With Comment # 11, now consistent, I believe, with Bug #2495
Compare the original entry here with comment #2 in bug #2495; one has a checkbox for a Creative Commons logo, and the other has a checkbox for an Open Access logo. Do we want to offer both, or are these conflicting? If we're just going with CC, which of the two setup sections should it appear in?

Deferring from 2.2
As a follow-up to comment #11 I think it would be good to give JMs the option to pick from one of the standard CC logos and licenses (although the default can still be by-attribution). As it currently stands, both the logo and license link are hard-coded into multiple footer templates. It would greatly simplify things for JMs to have some typical options as part of Setup.
Michael, agreed re: comment #7, but I think the changes suggested there are best left for a subsequent release. The current approach is pretty broadly compatible.
Yes, post 2.2.
