[Ruck, Deborah]

FYI

The APA is not implementing this policy  . . . at least for now.

The American Psychological Association will require authors who publish
in its journals to let it deposit their papers in open-access
repositories - and it will charge them $2,500 to do so....
EXCERPT:
Authors publishing in APA or EPF journals should NOT deposit, personally
and directly, Word documents of APA-accepted manuscripts or
APA-published articles in PubMed Central (PMC) or any other depository.


If you have access, see July 15, Chronicle of Higher Education article
about this.
