Synopsis

Electronic publishing has been gaining ground in the 1990s and is now a recognized part of the digital world. In this assessment of electronic publishing, 31 scholars, librarians and publishers focus specifically on scholarly publishing. They analyze a number of case studies and offer insights on a range of topics, including the financial costs involved, market forces, appropriate technological standards, licensing issues, intellectual property, copyright and associated user rights and the changing roles of researchers, publishers and librarians. The editors begin with an overview of scholarly communication and develop a novel interpretation of the important role that technology now plays.
