Denise Covey has an article in Portal regarding open access at Carnegie Mellon (reported by Peter Suber at Open Access News). Covey reports that self-archiving at Carnegie Mellon is used prolifically by a small percentage of faculty, leaving room for improvement. Copyright policy was also not followed as rigidly as hoped. Not all the results were negative. From the article:
At least 42% of the faculty has self-archived one or more publications and the practice has penetrated all colleges and all but the History and Music departments. A surprising 40% of the content cited on faculty web pages is available open access, including half of the conference papers and over half of the technical reports.
