Abstract

Many full‐text online document resources are currently secured by shared or individual usernames and passwords, or they are completely unprotected from unlicensed access by anyone on the Internet. The Document server model that was developed for the EC DECOMATE project offers an alternative way to secure access and ensure compliance with copyright and licence conditions, without requiring the owner of the resources to know about all the individual authorised users ‐and the software to implement it is free!
