| |
| <blockquote>
| |
| <p>The [http://papers.gersteinlab.org/e-print e-print] and other directories contain paper in
| |
| various stages of the publication process. For all the unpublished papers
| |
| and preprints, the free academic use section above applies. For reprints from
| |
| commercial journals, the policies vary. The largest number of papers from
| |
| the lab are from the Journal of Molecular Biology, which has a clear statement
| |
| regarding the posting of material on servers. The following is abstracted
| |
| from [http://www.academicpress.com/www/journal/copyrightuk/copyrightuk.htm JMB's copyright statement]: </p>
| |
| <blockquote>
| |
| <p><i><b>3. Personal Servers</b></i><br>
| |
| 3.1. Upon submitting an article to an Academic Press journal for review
| |
| and possible publication, authors are requested to add the following notice
| |
| to the first screen of any posted electronic preprint versions of the paper:
| |
| <i>This work has been submitted to Academic Press for possible publication.
| |
| Copyright may be transferred without notice, after which this version may
| |
| no longer be accessible. </i>Authors should note that posting the entire
| |
| work may be regarded as prior publication by some journal editors (see Information
| |
| for Authors of the specific journal).<br>
| |
| 3.2. When an Academic Press journal accepts the work for publication, the
| |
| authors may post it, in its final accepted form, on their personal servers
| |
| (but not on any organized preprint server) with a notice <i>Accepted for
| |
| publication in </i><name of journal> <i>as of </i><date>, until
| |
| it is published by Academic Press in print or electronic form. <br>
| |
| 3.3. After publication, authors may post their Academic Press copyrighted
| |
| material on their own servers without permission, provided that the server
| |
| displays as the first line of the HTML page the following notice alerting
| |
| readers to their obligations with respect to copyrighted material: <i>This
| |
| material has been published in </i><name of journal, issue number and
| |
| date, page numbers>, <i>the only definitive repository of the content
| |
| that has been certified and accepted after peer review. Copyright and all
| |
| rights therein are retained by Academic Press. This material may not be
| |
| copied or reposted without explicit permission. </i>The posted work must
| |
| also include the Academic Press copyright notice (Copyright © 199x
| |
| by Academic Press) and a link to IDEAL (International Digital Electronic
| |
| Access Library) at <<u>http://www.idealibrary.com</u>> or <<u>http://www.europe.idealibrary.com</u>>.

| <blockquote>
| |
| <p>Movies generated by the [http://www.molmovdb.org/morph Morph server] may be

| <h3><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Course Material</font></h3>
| |
| <blockquote>
| |
| <p> If you want to use the overheads from the [http://www.gersteinlab.org/courses/452/ Bioinformatics Course] in your own course, feel free, as long as you give proper attribution.
| |
| (In fact, a number of the overheads were derived from related courses at Stanford,
| |
| particularly those given by [http://csb.stanford.edu/levitt M Levitt],
| |
| and are so acknowledged.) In particular, for slides prepared by the course instructors, it is sufficient to simply say something like "Slide derived from Yale Bioinformatics Course (CBB752b)" and then give the course web link ([http://www.gersteinlab.org/courses/452 gersteinlab.org/courses/452]). For slides, originally created by instructors outside of the course, you should acknowledge them directly and contact them as appropriate. </P>
| |
| <P>Most of the course reading material is copyright
| |
| and can NOT be freely distributed. It should not be accessible outside of
| |
| Yale. </p>
