 Regarding the article in the UK's Guardian newspaper:

"Open access jeopardises academic publishers, Reed chief warns"
Richard Wray, Wednesday June 30, 2004
http://education.guardian.co.uk/higher/books/story/0,10595,1250591,00.html

At the end:

    "Reed has, however, made some concessions towards the open access
    movement... Alongside the rise of open access publishers, such as
    BioMed Central and PLoS, some academics are pushing for the right
    to place copies of articles they write for subscription journals on
    their own websites. Reed has changed its copyright rules to allow
    self-archiving in this way."
