description: Poster presented at The 22nd International Conference on Electronic Publishing, Toronto, Canada, Saturday, June 23 2018. <br><br>Due to the constraints of the poster format not every reference has been included- the poster is the result of a ruthless synthesis of qualitative work based on a variety of previous research. Every attempt was made to date any figures-- they were correct at the time of collating the data, but naturally it is likely to change. The bibliography below lists the main works that enabled the summary we have presented in abridged form in the poster itself. <br><br>Bibliography:<br>Alperin, JP., Babini, D., Fischman, G.
