Academic Librarians and Publishers: Customers versus Producers or Partners in the Planning of Electronic Publishing?
Abstract
Proposes that academic librarians and publishers should view themselves as partners rather than adversaries. Following a discussion of premises, problems, and attitudes related to librarian-publisher cooperation, several areas for joint development are suggested: new products and services; CD-ROM; electronic document delivery; scholarly book publishing; databases; networking; library-specific issues; standardization; and copyright.

... acceptability of electronic publications to academic tenure committees, mutability of electronic information, ease of reproduction and copyright enforcement, ownership and preservation of electronic information, overall impact on libraries' collections and services, and other issues. [1][2][3][4][5][6] Opinions are clearly divided about the inevitability and imminence of electronic publishing. Lancaster predicts the dominance of electronic information over print by the turn of the century. ...
... 3. Computing power is now considerably less expensive to purchase in the form of a number of small computers than in the form of a large computer of similar total power. 4. Computers become useful only as they are connected to information storage devices, interconnected via communications facilities, and supported by elaborate computer programs, or "software." ...
It has often been said that the library is the heart of the university. As the central repository of recorded knowledge on campus, the library is an essential resource for scholarly activity, and one measure of the greatness of a university is its library's collections. As electronic publishing expands and universities become computer-intensive organizations, what will the academic library's role be in this dynamic, technology-driven environment? Will it still be the heart of the university? This paper examines the medium-term future (10-15 years) of electronic publishing, the emerging "electronic university," and integrated public-access computer systems. Its central theme is that the academic library can synergetically combine traditional collections and services with new computerbased information resources and services to create a unified information system. By employing this strategy, it can continue to be the heart of the evolving electronic university. Citation: Charles W.

Dieser Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit den Möglichkeiten, Forschungsergebnisse über das WWW online zugänglich zu machen. Insbesondere wird die digitale Veröffentlichung von Dissertationen aus unterschiedlichen Interessenlagen betrachtet. Es wird untersucht, ob sich die wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen Fakultäten, die sich zunehmend mit dem Management von Innovationen beschäftigen, mit dieser für den Wissenschaftsbetrieb zentralen Innovation früher und/oder grundsätzlicher auseinandergesetzt haben als andere Bereiche.
This study aims to suggest a strategic alliance between libraries and publishers in Korea. When it considers the linear distribution channel of current publications and the entity and a butterfly effect of knowledge communication crisis, the publishers as production agency and the library as consuming subject must search a strategic cooperative plans. In order to achieve this goal, the study analysed the four issues(fixed book prices, library infrastructure, book and library supply policy of government, legal deposit system) which is important.
This paper looks at electronic publishing and its potential impact on the publication and distribution of library materials. Potential barriers to the “electronic library”e are also discussed.
The study sought to answer the question, “What contribution, if any, can the publishing of professional articles in electronic form make to scholarly and research communication?” The professional article, arguably more than any other form of research communication, is seen as fundamental to the Western system of scholarship. A state-of-the-art review, and a survey of academics in Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States covered the following themes: origins of professional articles; state of the printed journal; electronic publishing—pioneering research and development; publishing via commercial database hosts; publishing via the Internet and related academic networks; publishing via portable electronic media; tensions in document supply and interlending; academics as authors and readers of professional articles, and universities as publishers. Responses of 582 academics in Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States to a survey in the second half of 1992 enabled an assessment of the position of academics in relation to electronic publishing. Evidence was interpreted through two complementary theoretical perspectives which allowed electronic publishing to be viewed (a) as a process of technologically induced structural change across an industry, and (b) as a means of increasing efficiency and gaining competitive advantage. It was concluded that the contribution of electronic publishing lies in greater diversity and choice in a marketplace where at-source-subsidized publishing competes with fee-for-service publishing. Recommendations are made for new relationships among academics, publishers, libraries, and universities. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
