Thank you for the mention of Haworth Press.
Our old Haworth Press copyright agreement attempted to provide
to authors rights to privately disseminate their material
in a manner paralleling how printed author reprints (remember those?)
were provided upon publication, and often photocopied and shared.
Our approach was to encourage author reprint sharing mainly because we always
put an ad for the journal on the last page of each article.
Now, you can imagine how far back and dated that thinking was.
At that time, we didn't then appreciate how "posting" a pdf on
the internet took on the function of "re-publication."
The Taylor & Francis operation was far more sophisticated.
Their more analytic sales teams also dealt with new worlds of
Big Deals, tailored specialty packages, and complex library
consortia offerings in a manner far more befitting current needs.
Haworth Press did not have a "deep bench" in those areas.
In addition T&F society publishing program, including
as it does such top-ranked journals of historic value, speaks for itself.
The new copyright needs of Taylor & Francis were quite different. Although
opinions may vary (and they did), they always in the end seemed
apt, appropriate and befitting.

Sure, Look at the Journal of the Medical Library Association. This
was common with Haworth journals before Taylor and Francis bought it.
Authors retain copyright but give JMLA non exclusive license.

Here's an interesting blog posting -- does anyone know of any
scholarly journals in which authors transfer copyright partially to
their publishers? In principle it could be done, but do any journals
do this?
