  • The beginning of the scientific publishing system, which is closely linked with the printed journal, reaches back to the 17th century. The so called “serials crisis” destroys this model that was strongly established in the “print area/age”: On the one hand, significantly rising journal prices and declining library budgets are more and more limiting access to scientific literature. On the other hand, the digital technologies not only accelerate the publication process, they also have a high innovation potential (e.g. possibilities of linking, integrating multimedia-based and interactive elements). This book analyses possible approaches for solving the serials crises. It focuses on the role of the libraries. It is shown, that the current period of upheaval in the scientific landscape is a chance for libraries to further develop to sustainable service providers – if the necessary reforms are commenced. The book addresses librarians working in academic libraries, scientists and scholars, policy-makers, and everyone, who is interested in the research process.
