We've discovered this with a number of society titles offered through
HighWire (articles free after an embargo but require free registration).
When we identify these titles, we add a note in Serials Solutions
indicating registration is required but free.  We do not add any notes
to the MARC records.

Subject: [SERIALST] DOAJ sign-up question

Has anyone encountered specific journals (such as "Innovate") listed in
DOAJ that require a user to register in order to access
articles in those journals?  Have you encountered users asking if they
need to pay for this sign-up or other questions regarding
sign-up? How does your library treat this kind of individual journal
sign up requirement in the bibliographic record?
