Retro-active OA (back content)

For requests on retro-active back content to be flipped to OA (before the present publication year and not because of a transformative agreement) the following applies.

The request shall reach the Production Editor (PE) or their teamleader (CDE Journals) from the Brill Open Access team (openaccess@brill.com, c/o Wai Min Kan in most cases). 

CDE-J to check or realize that the vendor by the time the article was published is just the current vendor. In some cases, they will (come to know) that the journal wasn’t with Brill at all that long ago

If unsure, CDE-J to check with the present vendor if they have been the vendor indeed since the target article was published.

Not that vendor? CDE-J to reach out to other vendor – if known or still on board with Brill.

In case no vendor is available to fix this, CDE-J shall forward the retro-active OA request to the journal's Production Controller.

If the answer to (2) is just affirmative, CDE-J to order a resupply of JATS at the vendor.

No need for Brill to obtain a new final PDF for print, just the new JATS package.

CDE-J to make sure the license type's to the vendor, or Production, and any specialties that may apply.

No need to create a task in RSuite (though you may do that), and in case you will be the recipient of the resupply of JATS, just ask the vendor to deliver as e-mail attachment (sizes up to some 20 MB will work). Otherwise ftp.

If you will be the recipient of the resupply of JATS, please upload the new zip package to  JRNL_Resupply (MS Teams).

Please ask you team leader CDE Journals if you need any assistance re (1-5) and (8) above. They might know more than you do.
