Copyright sets boundaries on history: "Dr Humphrey Southall, the director of the University of Portsmouth's project, points out a further irony: if the project's website, which is funded by the universities' Joint Information Systems Committee (Jisc), were visible only within further and higher education institutions, it would be covered by Edina, a wide-ranging access agreement between data suppliers including OS and Jisc. 'It only arises because it's open access,' says Southall. 'Taxpayers would be amazed what is available within higher education, which is paid for by the general public but isn't available to the general public.'"
