- Each and every author with published contact details shall receive a final PDF (“e-offprint”) of their published article.
E-offprints of Forewords and Editorials are not being sent since it is assumed that journal Editors have full online access anyway and would be triggered by new content alerts form the platform, or have plenty of other incentives to visit their journal online quite frequently. - Authors who publish in Advance receive this twice: first on publication in Advance and later when the article has been included in an issue.
- The Production Editor (PE) is to be in CC of any such message.
- Side letter: the most recent version shall be used. As agreed earlier, the side letter is a ‘one-size-fits-all’. Hence, its content covers both publications under © just licensed to Brill only and Open Access contributions. Please scroll down to view the side letter.
- Author e-offprints shall be sent same day as the vendor’s delivery of the applicable JATS package (issue-based or Advance). Whereas this is less important in the case of Advance articles, the approximately 6-12 hours time window is seen as essential for issue-based matter. In the case of JATS deliveries very late in the afternoon (evening, night) in the vendor's timezone, author fulfilment on the next day, beginning of business in the vendor's time zoneon their side, is fine. ASAP after JATS will be greatly appreciated.
- There should be no need for the PE to remind the vendor on these arrangements.
