ACM. open access. CCBY and reuse

[Paola Di Maio]

Greetings, F11

As a publisher I occasionally repost/reuse CCBY content of interest

I am puzzled by the ACM open access policy

 JISC says

https://beta.jisc.ac.uk/news/all/association-for-computing-machinery-agreement-a-significant-step-forward-for-open-access-in-the-uk

The agreement, which runs for 3 years until 2025, enables all affiliated authors to publish their research on a completely open access basis in the ACM Digital Library by selecting a creative commons attribution licence (CC BY) for article sharing and reuse.

and

On the ACM faq it says https://libraries.acm.org/subscriptions-access/acmopen-faq

The default choice for the corresponding author is to grant ACM the non-exclusive permission to publish and to use a CC-BY license; however, the author may also choose to grant ACM an exclusive license to publish.  If granting ACM the non-exclusive permission to publish, the author may also choose other CC licenses. 

 But

When accessing open access articles on ACM digital library, howeer I cannot see the CCBY license  (normally the CCBY license plate is  included at the bottom of the article) Here for example

https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/3593013.3594019

 I do not see the open access/cc license plate

am I missing something?

read: FALSE?

Can anyone help to shed a light on this?

I can write to ACM, but this may apply to other articles/publishers as well

Thanks

PDM

Hi Paolo, 

When I open the full-text version of this article in either pdf or html, the CC-BY license is included at the bottom of the page. Apparently, and unfortunately, ACM does not include the license on the landing page of the article, which is not good practice. 

kind regards,

Bianca Kramer

Thanks a lot Bianca, I had completely missed it, Maybe I was looking for it on the last page. I know where to check next time. Yes, it would be good to have it somewhere on top or easily visible. Cheers
