Abstract

Purpose - This paper aims to bring together information on whether any evidence exists of a commercial conflict between the creation of digital archives at research institutions and by key subject centres of excellence, and the business of journal publishing. Design/methodology/approach - Relevant publications, including articles published in refereed books and journals, as well as informal commentaries on listservs, blogs and wikis, were analysed to determine whether there is any evidence of a commercial relationship. Findings - Most of the published comments are highly subjective and anecdotal - there is a significant emotional overtone to many of the views expressed. There is precious little hard evidence currently available to support or debunk the idea that a commercial conflict exists between repositories and journal subscriptions. The situation is made more difficult by the many technological, sociological and administrative changes that are taking place in parallel to the establishment of repositories. Practical implications - Separating the key drivers and their impact is a major strategic challenge facing all stakeholders in the scholarly communication industry in future. Research limitations/implications - This is an important area which requires close monitoring - the possible threat that the established journal publishing system could be eroded away by a new "free" scholarly information system needs attention. One significant study in this area is being undertaken by the PEER group, funded by the European Commission with hard evidence being collected by UCL's CIBER research group. The results from this impartial investigation will be very welcome. Originality/value - The paper shows that relationship between repositories and journal subscriptions is vague.

Rez. in: Mitt VÖB 63(2010) H.1/2, S.149-155 (B. Bauer): "Wie schon die erste Auflage thematisiert auch die neue, deutlich erweitere Ausgabe den Wandel vom traditionellen Publikationsmodell (print-only) zu einem hybriden (print and digital) bzw. zu einem ausschließlich elektronischen Publikationsmodell. Aufgrund der rasanten Entwicklung des elektronischen Publikationssektors in den letzten zehn Jahren wurde eine Überarbeitung erforderlich. So war etwa in der ersten Auflage die Bedeutung der CD-ROM-Technologie übertrieben dargestellt worden, während die Auswirkungen des Internet und des Web unterschätzt worden waren. Brown & Boulderstone beschreiben in ihrem Buch, wie das Thema "elektronisches Publizieren" Verlage und Bibliotheken in den letzten Jahren in mehreren Phasen beeinflusst hat: In Phase 1 - von den frühen 1990er Jahren bis zum Erscheinen der ersten Auflage 1996 - gab es zwar schon elektronische Medien, aber noch dominierten gedruckte Medien. Phase 2 - von Mitte der 1990er Jahre bis zu den frühen 2000er Jahren - war eine Periode der Konfusion, die durch das Erscheinen des Internet und durch die damit einhergehenden neuen Möglichkeiten verursacht wurde. Phase 3 - seit den frühen 2000er Jahren - ist gekennzeichnet von einem starken Aufschwung des elektronischen Publizierens; der Stellenwert der digitalen hat gegenüber den entsprechenden analogen Versionen deutlich zugenommen. In diesem Abschnitt werden, gegliedert in drei Kategorien, 14 Einflussfaktoren, die die Entwicklung hin zum elektronischen Publizieren beschleunigen, vorgestellt.
