Totally agree about dissemination, and I wish the articles were all open-access. Issues of this particular journal are included with membership to the SMCM. I don't know if it's still the case but the publisher used to require a home address for delivery - they wouldn't send it to an institutional mailing address, and you had to agree not to put it in your institution's library!

In general, if we publish something to this journal, are we allowed to
publish the same paper anywhere else?

I also have the same question. If we can't publish the paper anywhere else, then that puts some restrictions on the amount of output we could create for an academic journal.
