I'd probably suggest that if he thinks it is likely to be an issue with
publishers, to hold off depositing his PhD Thesis for a few years to let him
publish articles based on that work.
It may be worth posting your question on either

Or there may be some advise on RSP http://www.rsp.ac.uk/

>
> A lecturer has asked me if having his PhD thesis entered into the
> University's Institutional Repository counted as it being 'published'. His
> concern is that he wants to try to publish some journal articles based on
> his doctoral thesis, but many journals have a submission requirement that
> the material has not already been published elsewhere. Does anyone have any
> thoughts they'd like to share...
