Since April 1999, we have been publishing Japanese and English
papers online. Until now, these papers have been made available at no
charge, in order to promote circulation. Now that the Institute is
better known and the number of submissions is rising, we are planning
to move to a fee-based subscription, as originally envisioned.
We will be implementing the transition in stages, in order to avoid an
abrupt shift to a fee-based subscription, and to minimize the risk of
losing subscribers. First, we will require registration (obtaining a
User ID and password), in order to view complete documents. In other
words, we will permit non-members to view documents as long as they
are registered as subscribers. During the transition period, we will
be encouraging non-member subscribers to join the Institute.
Therefore, from June 1, 2004, non-subscribing members of the public
will still be able to view titles, authors, and abstracts. However,
viewing complete documents will require registration (a User ID and
password).Even Institute members will need to register.
