Alternatives to Commercial Publishing for Scholarly Communication
Abstract
Major changes are beginning to occur in scholarly communication. The availability of print journals in an electronic format is only the beginning of a revolution in the communication of research. A parallel revolution may be beginning in the organisation of the publication of scholarly communication.
