Today, I learned about the existence of RoMEO, a database used to answer a very specific but often problematic question about peer-reviewed journals. The question is "Can I store and share the work I've published in this journal with people who want to read it?" and the answer is often "No, nope, never, probably not, you don't have that right, this is ours now, bwahaha, etc. etc." RoMEO lists which publishers feel that way and which publishers have more open attitudes toward self-archiving.
