BioMed Central has taken steps to ensure that all Open Access articles published by BioMed Central & PhysMath Central are deposited in a number of safe Open Access archives. Should BioMed Central be sold, or fail, Open Access to the articles published is guaranteed to continue via those archives. If and when a change of ownership should be considered, PhysMath Central’s Advisory Board will be asked to judge and advise whether sufficient guarantees to continue a policy of unconditional open access for research articles are being offered and agreed by any prospective new owner. BioMed Central will not enter into a change of ownership agreement unless the Advisory Board accepts these guarantees.
