For the purpose of incorporating Open URL into the TeX-Document, authors make use of the hyperref package. Hyperref allows for creating hyperlink references to URLs that work from pdf, xml and xhtml files. Using hyperref, authors are able to create external links, as well as anchors to figures, tables, footnotes and sections. The use of hypertext is beneficial for electronic Journals, because it enables the author to relate relevant information easily. A detailed description of the usage of hyperref commands is available in online user manual.

The Journal of Virtual Reality and Broadcasting is now listed as ‘green’ publication in the RoMEO database of the SHERPA Services based at the University of Nottingham. The database summarizes publishers’ conditions with a colour-coded category system that indicates the authors’ rights. ‘Green’ in this context means that JVRB allows the archiving of pre-print, post-print and publisher’s versions of its articles. This implies that authors are allowed to upload and distribute their articles freely over the internet for instance by publicly uploading it to social networks for researchers such as Researchgate, CiteULike or Mendeley.
The TeX Users Group (TUG) was founded in 1980 for educational and scientific purposes in order to provide an organization for those who have an interest in typography and font design, and are users of the TeX typesetting system invented by Donald Knuth.

The Comprehensive TeX Archive Network (CTAN) presents the primary source for TeX-related software in the internet.
