[René König]

Hi Gerry and colleagues,

Our project "Interactive Science" might be interesting for you. We 
analyze a wide variety of new scholarly forms of communication. For more 
detailed information please see

(For the English version click on the English button on the right).

I already discovered your interesting blog a while ago but I 
unfortunately didn´t have time yet to read it more closely. However, it 
seems that we have similar interests and therefore it would be good to 
stay in contact. You might also like to check out our link section which 
is in English and presents many links to innovative e-journals etc.:

You are of course also welcome to suggest new links!
Best regards,

René

> Scholars have a vast range of opportunities to distribute their work, from setting up web pages or blogs, to posting articles to working paper websites or institutional repositories, to including them in peer-reviewed journals or books. In American colleges and universities, access to the internet and World Wide Web is ubiquitous; consequently nearly all intellectual effort results in some form of "publishing". Yet universities do not treat this function as an important, mission-centric endeavor.

> Although many new forms of scholarly exchange have reached an advanced state of adoption, scholars and researchers generally remain remarkably naïve and uninformed about many issues involved with change in scholarly publishing and scholarly communication broadly.

> Research libraries have led in educating stakeholders about new models and are expanding their outreach to campus communities. In considering the effects of recent change, and looking to emerging trends and concerns, six dangers of the current moment are considered along with six topics ripe for campus dialogue.
