This is interesting, but only in the sense of watching rich people play with their expensive toys sort of way. "Full-text publications from Octopus, the innovative platform for scholarly research, are now being deposited automatically into UK repositories via a live feed into Jisc's Publications Router." Great, right? Even better, "everything from Octopus is made available under a CC BY licence with no embargo." The problem is with the Publications Router. Unless I've missed something important, people like me and you can't use it. "Publications Router gathers information from content providers such as publishers and passes it on to institutions to help them capture their research articles onto their systems, such as their repositories or CRISs. The service is open to Jisc member institutions with compatible systems." No soup for you!
