In reply to Mike Mace and Arnold Trachtenberg, who inquired about the
possibility of making old Herbertia articles available:

It is possible that the copyright held on Herbertia by the IBS covers
not the content of the individual contributions, but what is known as
the "compilation." This is the content of the journal as printed,
including pagination, layout, and other physical details. In many
cases the author of the article in such a journal retains copyright
to the text and images and can give permission to reproduce them
without recourse to the publisher of the journal. It should be
ascertained, presumably from the editor of a recent volume of
Herbertia, just what the copyright notice covers.

Should the copyright be limited to the compilation, the PBS could
inquire of individual authors (and photographers, if different) about
posting the text of articles on our website. It might be necessary,
however, to prepare pdfs in a format different from the actual Herbertia pages.
