An
effective scientific publishing system for European research Media
Release Brussels, 15 June 2004. The Commission today launched a study
on the economic and technical evolution of the scientific publication markets
in Europe, the results of which will be available in 2005. The objective
is to determine the conditions required for optimum operation of the sector
and to assess the extent to which the Commission can help to meet those
conditions. The study will deal with the main topics of the current public
debate, such as the future of printed scientific reviews, the risks associated
with increases in the price of publications in terms of access to information
for researchers, open access to research findings for all and the
need to reconcile authors’ rights and the economic interests of publishers.

From Stevan Harnad
(29/1/03): This message is for those who have downloaded and have
created or are creating Eprint Archives using the Eprints.org software:
We are trying to maintain
a growing list of Eprints adopters, but many downloaders have not registered
themselves. Could I ask you to send me an email with the URL of your Eprints
Archive so we can add it to our lists?
