Open Access Policy of the publisher of the first publication

Please find out whether and under which conditions a secondary publication is permitted. This depends to a large extent on the agreements between publishers and authors. The different rules range from a general prohibition of the spread of the published article over a temporal limitation of this exclusivity to the permission to publish the articles on a web server, which belongs to the institution of the author.
