Scholarly Communications: A History from Content as King to Content
as Kingmaker traces the development of scholarly communications
from the creation of the first scientific journal through the wide
diversity of professional information services today. Unlike any
other book, this work is an authoritative history by the past
President of Elsevier and current Professor at Long Island
University, which examines the changing nature of scholarly
communication throughout its history, including its research
importance as well as its business value. It specifically covers
four key themes: 1.the value of scholarly content and information
at various stages of it development and use; 2.the role that
technology has played on the use, importance, and value of
scholarly information and research communications; 3.the changing
business models affecting the system of scholarly communication
from the way it is produced to how it is distributed and consumed;
and 4.some of the implications of mobile, cloud, and social
computing technologies on the future of scholarly communications.
Attention is paid to analyzing the structural changes that the
professional publishing community now faces. Regazzi examines
research content as an economic good; how technology and business
models have greatly affected the value of scholarly publishing; and
the drivers of the future sustainability of our system of scholarly
communication.
