This tool allows users and repository managers to query copyright policies and self-archiving of the journals and publishers about deposit of publications in open access repositories.

Within the project RCAAP, there is an integrated search box Sherpa / Romeo and provided supporting information.

This service is maintained by SHERPA, with support from JISC and the Wellcome Trust. It is a development of the original listing of editors of magazines produced by the Project RoMEO.

Copyright policies and self-archiving of scientific journals and publishers are handled by the portuguese initiative Blimunda.
