Copyright protection in an aggregation or subsidiary work stretches out just to the new material helped by the creator of the work. Copyright security for an arrangement or subordinate work does not stretch out to prior material included in the gathering or subsidiary work and does not suggest any select right in the previous material or influence in any capacity the prior copyright.
Copyright is important to creators like writers and artists as well as those such as publishers that own rights, as it provides them with a legal right of ownership of the work that they produce.
Open Access articles are immediately, freely available on their Web site, a model mostly funded by charges paid by the author (usually through a research grant). The alternative for a researcher is �self-archiving� (i.e., to publish in a traditional journal, where only subscribers have immediate access, but to make the article available on their personal and/or institutional Web sites (including so-called repositories or archives)), which is a practice allowed by many scholarly journals.
