- Abstract
- In order to be effective, the scientific information chain has always needed intermediaries: author, publisher, agent, librarian and user; but these roles are changing and the scientific information chain is in crisis. The system must be modified and the electronic publishing provides a possible answer. Reports on the ICSU/UNESCO Conference of Experts on 'Electronic Publishing in Science', held in Paris in Feb 1996, which approved a series of recommendations. Identifies costs and benefits, and stresses the need for models of the use of electronically stored periodicals
