Subject: Creating a new E-journal
I am on a committee of the American Political Science Association that is
considering electronic publication of a journal. I edit the Law & Politics
Book Review, which for five years has been publishing on an internet
listserv in ASCII. The new journal, however, would have tables and figures
and articles longer than could comfortably be transmitted by listserv.
I am about to suggest to them the following initial strategy:
1) Publish abstracts on listserv.
2) Put the articles themselves on WWW, with the text in HTML and tables and
figures in Acrobat with the two linked to one another.
As it becomes easier to convert tables and figures that come in from a word
processor into HTML, they could move to eliminate the Acrobat files.
Does anyone an alternative suggestion? any experience with it? Many thanks.

News release
Linking hypermedia journals on the World Wide Web:=20
the Open Journal project
http://journals.ecs.soton.ac.uk/
The main features of the project's link service are:
* Links do not need to be placed when journal papers are authored, thus
realizing the concept of the 'open' journal
* Links can be made _from_ archival journals available electronically,
not only from new publications or new issues
* Links can be made from documents in popular electronic formats, such
as pdf, as well as html
* Links can be created by simple point-and-click mouse operations rather
than embedded, inflexible and costly html code
Powerful and flexible hypermedia linking facilities are being added to
quality scientific journals that are available over the World Wide Web under
a new project supported by the Electronic Libraries (eLib) programme, funded
by the Higher Education Funding Bodies in the United Kingdom.
The Open Journal project based at the University of Southampton will add=
these
features to electronically distributed versions of the the journal
_Development_ from the Company of Biologists and the British Computer
Society=92s _The Computer Journal_, published by Oxford University Press.
Collaboration on the development of page-based electronic journals between
the University of Nottingham and the publisher John Wiley and Sons - the
CAJUN project - will be extended, and new features will be added to one of
the first wholly electronic refereed journals to be made available over the
Internet, Stevan Harnad's _Psycoloquy_.
The need to place original work in the context of established knowledge is a
vital part of academic research. Adding hypermedia links to journals extends
the ways in which connections can can be made between papers. Potentially,
any feature within a paper can be the starting point for a new thread of
enquiry. An essential element of the project will be to enable links to be
followed _from_ any networked information resources, other journals and
on-line databases for example. Links can also be made from other media such
as sound and video resources that are accessible through the WWW.
Being able to make and follow links from, rather than simply to, other=
resources
enables more useful link paths to be authored, adding value to the original
link source and avoiding 'dead end' links, a common problem on the WWW.
The innovative feature of the Open Journal project is that the links between
information sources do not need to be explicitly embedded in the journal
papers when they are authored, thus realizing the concept of the 'open'
journal. Links can be initiated by readers, or a set of pre-authored link
databases held separately from the information being read can be created to
guide users through specific resources. In addition, through the development=
of
subject-expert software 'agents=92 users will be offered a greater range of
relevant resources than they could discover independently.=20
To apply the information-linking process the project will use an open
hypermedia system, Microcosm and its associated Distributed Link Service,
developed at the University of Southampton. Adobe Acrobat will be one of the
formats supported for page presentation. The project's collaborators at the
University of Nottingham are developing `plug-ins' for Acrobat viewers so
that the distributed links can be compiled down into the form required by
Acrobat.
There is scope for publishers committed to the development of electronic
journals, and who have begun to develop an electronic archive of current and
recent journal papers, to collaborate in this work or to obtain a copy of=
the
Distributed Link Service link-generating software. Contact:

Subject: Authentication schemes for individual, campus subscriptions
Our campus is looking at options for placing a print journal on
the Web (in HTML and Acrobat forms) on a for-fee subscription
basis. Discussions so far have centered on an IP-address based
authentication scheme. Personally, I am concerned about a number
of shortcomings of IP address schemes, including in particular
the problem of letting a reader's subscription follow the reader
into Internet access points other than the machine on his or her desktop
on campus.
I'm curious if any e-journal publishers are using any schemes
other than IP addresses for identifying subscribers. For instance,
is anyone using, or considering, the Clickshare service?
I'm also curious if any publishers of scholarly journals are
accepting fees over the Internet. Are you using First Virtual,
or some other scheme?
My impressions thus far are that:
1) The vast majority of e-journals are freely available on the Net
2) Those that are not freely available are licensed on a campus-wide
or departmental scheme with IP-based authentication
I'd love to be disabused of these impressions. :-)

My firm belief is that HTML is for on-screen display, and Acrobat is
for offline printing. Here's why:
-- HTML document printing is primitive. Only the most recent versions
of Netscape learned to print useful headers and footers.
-- HTML is inherently well adapted to screen viewing, with text
re-flowed to fit the window and font sizes selected by the reader.
-- PDF documents are inherently well suited for printing. Layout
is preserved as are standard page numbers (chosen by the publisher
not the reader). This is vital for any scholarly commentary and
review process. (Yes, you could have internal anchors within an
HTML page for citation purposes, but there are advantages to
linear documents with ordinal page counts if a community of
scholars is expected to review and cite parts of articles.)
-- PDF documents do not view very well on the screen. Following columns
isn't always easy, and paging operations can be slow.
And now, the most important point:
-- People do not want to read scholarly-length articles on a computer
screen. Anything more than a few pages is read more comfortably
off-line. Display technology, and scrolling technology, are a long
way off from being useful for long reading sessions. For a long long
time, we'll print articles for careful reading.
So it seems to me a mix of Listserv and the Web for abstracts and
contents, and Acrobat for the full text with tables and graphics,
makes a lot of sense. Browse the net to find what you want to read.
Then, print only articles of interest for careful offline reading.

The best model seems to be that of JAIR which follows 1 above but
charges for the paper version. A second model now emerging is that
of ACM where members of the society will have free electronic access --
however, I don't know any technology yet that can manage the
exclusion of others effectively. Authentication on the Internet will
always be a major problem since passwords get bandied around and
IP addresses do not indicate who is accessing -- I use some 15 IP
addresses every day.
I had a similar problem for a government database where the agency
wanted it on the web but with controlled access, and told them to
forget it for the next year or so.
There are really deep socio-technical problems with authentication
that none of the current proposals seem to address.

Part of the problem is the simplistic http protocol. There are much better
protocols around, but they have not yet taken off.
In particular, anyone seriously interested in any form of electronic
publication should look at the Z39.50 protocol, which is compatible with
the ISO search and retrieval protocol and caters for authentication, access
control and a range of other bells and whistles. There are links from my
net page at http://lamp.cs.utas.edu.au/net.html

Rich's remarks reflect the current situation, but some caveats if Netscape
does make PDF reading simple.
We currently reformat all our conf and journal papers before we put them
up on the web in RTF, ps and HTML formats. It is easy to create screen-
readable PDF docs that has somewhat better formatting than do HTML docs.
However, much more importantly, it is a lot easier to create a PDF file
from a word processor than a HTML file. My guess would be that academics
will move towards papers in PDF rather than HTML once Netscape does support
PDF.
This is unfortunate for indexing purposes since the HTML tags
are very useful, but one can do a pretty good job of guessing headings
inside a PDF file so it's not a disaster.

The new "slate" technologies with 8 x 11 LCD screens may change that
-- a "long time" may be 2 or 3 years -- technology time scales are
short nowadays.

In a sample of 134 _peer-reviewed_ ejournals/ that I am currently studying,
just twelve, or about 9%, are fee-based; the rest are free. It is my
impression that the percentage of fee-based journals is much lower than 9%
for zines and other non peer-reviewed ejournals/.

the apparent email address, which is at the University of Illinois, is
really the account that was used to send the material. It would probably
be a good idea not to spam that address back, or at least not to flame the

Subject: alternative approach for subscriptions
X-cc: marks@netscape.com
There may be an easier alternative approach for subscription based
journals that more closely resembles print journals.
Netscape has announced but not distributed an upgrade to their web
browser. Navigator 2.0 and Navigator Gold will supposedly have complete
e-mail interfaces built in. If they can also display pdf files this
creates the following alternative:
Person subscribes by normal means (mails a check, etc). The journal is
then _mailed_ to them via e-mail in html or pdf format. Or even better, the
table of contents is mailed, which contains links to the full articles
that nonsubscribers would not know about. Then person retrieves the
articles that they are interested in.
The security of this arrangement is basically the same as a print
journal--of course copies get passed around. But people are still willing
to buy their own subscription.
Of course, one needs Netscape Navigator with e-mail capabilities or
something similar. I've tried to talk with Netscape about release date
and pricing (it has been free for academic uses) but all I know at this
point is that it will be released sometime in December. Their academic
guy has not responded to my inquiries about academic pricing.
Does this sound like a workable means of e-journal distribution?

There's another reason as well:

Emailing an HTML table of contents is a good idea. Any browser, not just
Netscape, could be used to get the abstracts and full articles the user
wants. Mailing a full journal of PDF files (sometimes 6 MB for one
article) would jam up a lot of systems. A username and password could
still be required before downloading. At JMB Online, users have to
register (no charge at the moment) and can get a weekly table of contents
mailed to them (not in HTML at the moment). Adding an HTML Table of
Contents would be a small step.
The interesting problems arise when charging comes into it. The options
are, free subscriptions, small flat fee or time based subscriptions for
the user, or site licenses for institutions, giving access to many users.
The print version of JMB Online (Journal of Molecular Biology) has mainly
institutional subscriptions, so site licenses for the online version seem
sensible.
It would be interesting to know what other fee-based ejournals/ are doing.

Ed Pentz wrote that emailing an HTML table of contents is a good
idea. I am not sure that I agree, as this approach would use a
considerable amount of resources (sending the TOCs to each
subscriber and having each subscriber store them) for "just in
case use". I believe that a short notification message would be
preferable if such a service is needed. The duplication of
effort and materials is what the digital age is supposed to
prevent. What part of the academic community has the funds for
such extravagance? One copy of the tables of contents can serve
everyone.
With JHU Project Muse (muse.jhu.edu) we make our (enhanced)
tables of contents freely available to everyone who is on the
Internet. Any scholar at subscribing institutions can then get
the full text. Personal subscriptions are not needed for any
scholar (student, faculty, researcher, staff) at a subscribing
institution.
Most libraries that are subscribing to Muse journals
for their colleges or universities are subscribing to the entire
journal list (42 journals) because they like the idea of offering
just in case access at just in time prices. Even if a journal is
used only a few times a year, it has paid for itself through
avoiding ILL or document delivery costs.

There may be a technical problem, if lines would be broken by
sending, transferring or reading:
theoretically all spaces and line brakes should be ignored by the WWW
browsers, but my experiences are different if the line brake or space
is in a .
1) e.g. for a paragraph would be broken to:
the result is a paragraph and this is right
2) e.g.
for a paragraph would be broken to:
<

this result is wrong: Netscape (1.2N) shows < P> in the text and
Mosaic (old version 1.00.c6.07) shows nothing but blanks

Subject: Thesis about Online Publishing ready
My thesis about online publishing is ready. Unfortunately it is
ONLY in GERMAN language available, sorry.
I included the following aspects among others:
- is the internet a mass communication medium (comparison of
communicational theories)
- freedom of the press and internet (german law)
- international trade and consumer taxes
- advertising
- copyright (german and international law)
- e-cash systems (working and future systems worldwide)
- how to cite internet sources
- URN
- special aspects of online books and journals
- costs of online publishing
- a practical publication of a book was made and the problems and
results were discussed
- i also pointed out some projects (books and journals, also PACS
Review)
- internet catalogs and directories
- trends
- etc.
The complete work is available as a german book.
ISBN 3-927960-28-4 (28 DM, about 20 US$)
The directory of content, hole appendix (65kB) and guidelines for
citing internet sources are available in german from my homepage at:
URL: http://www.uni-mainz.de/~bleuj000
(mind the tilde before "bleuj000" if it wasn't transfered)
or lifetime URL: http://pobox.com/~bleuel

Subject: Re: alternative approach to subs
Todd Kelley states that Project Muse makes journals available to all
users at a subscribing institution and that personal subscriptions are
not needed.
What about users who travel a lot and would like to access the journals
while on the road -- or at other institutions?
What about enhanced services tailored to individuals?
These would seem to be arguments for having the option for a personal
subscription. We will be developing our philosophy of charging over the
next two months, and we think personal subscriptions will be an important
part of our philosophy.
But the problem of restricting access to subscribers will not be easy
to solve since it has to be effective and not overly intrusive. I hope
other people will continue to comment.
While I am "on the air" I encourage readers to try out our scientific,
peer-reviewed journal, the Astrophysical Journal Letters.
http://www.aas.org/ApJ/ (note the caps/lowercase and the final /)
Here we show what a useful journal on the Web looks like. We have had very
few suggestions for improvement and lots of compoliments, so we must be
getting it mostly right. The features to note are:
1. Plenty of navigation buttons.
2. References linked to a database of abstracts (and some scanned pages)
of referenced articles.
3. HTML presentations of graphs, math and halftones as thumbnails and
full figures.
4. Links back into the articles from the figure and reference pages.
5. PDF files for local printing.
6. Careful formatting for effective on-screen reading (as muc as that is
possible).
Comments on this are also welcome.
Thanks in advance,

journal/magazine show up in your mailbox and having to go to the
library or at web site to look for it. A web site passively awaits
visitors, who are unlikely to remember to check there the day the new
issue comes out. Sending out a table of contents (TOC) with hyperlinks back
to the articles effectively functions the same as mailing the entire
journal. Yet an HTML table of contents is not significantly more resource
intensive than a much less useful notice of publication (we are
talking a few k more or less here). Of course one needs an e-mail
program that is integrated with a web browser so that clicking on a
title in the TOC accesses the article. Many purveyors of browsers
seem to be moving in this direction.
Mailing the TOC makes sense for a certain kind of project--one where
indiviuals subscribe and have an interest in browsing each issue. It
doesn't make sense for journals that are sold as a package to
libraries/institutions for research purposes.
BTW: Its great that JHU has taken such a leadership position in this
field. I hope its so successful they e-publish the titles I'm
interested in before '97!

Subject: libraries and electronic journals
I have been reading with interest about the models presented for
tables of contents, web access etc. In some I notice an assumption
that the institution's library will continue a full subscription to
allow individuals' access.
Many library are exploring ways of alerting users to these holdings --
point from homepages, catalogue a title, download samples or table of
contents pages, etc. We do not have any answers yet.
Libraries which are forced to make cancellations in the face of
rising costs, may find themselves paying so that professors can get
electronic access to a journal, and then cancelling a print journal
that could be used by many many students.
I have no answers, only questions to consider.

NewJour, the Internet list for reporting and announcing new on-line
electronic journals, announces a major improvement in its archive. The
result is an important new tool for those who track the explosive growth
in on-line Internet serial publishing, or simply for those who wish to
see what is available in particular subject areas. The URL is simple:
http://gort.ucsd.edu/newjour
*The archive is maintained by mhonarc software which not only displays
the entries in HTML, but takes all URLs in the messages and turns them
into links, so when you read an entry describing a journal that offers a
URL, you can immediately click and go to the site described. There is
searching software and a reverse chronological index to let visitors
check the newest material first. (Suggestions for other ways to improve
the presentation are very welcome.)*
As of 3 p.m. Pacific Time, Sunday, October 22nd, 1995, the NewJour
archive contains 975 items.
NewJour distributes its reports to 2200 subscribers on all seven
continents (list subscription instructions below). Its archive goes
back to August 1993, but the last half year has seen a remarkable boom
in initiatives reported. The list began as an activity of the
Association of Research Libraries in connection with its famous
*Directory of Electronic Scholarly Journals, Newsletters, and Discussion
Lists*, now in its fifth edition. ARL has enriched the scope of the
Directory project and the partnerships that create it, and NewJour now
represents a collaboration between ARL, the Yale University Libraries,
the Center for Computer Analysis of Texts (CCAT) at the University of
Pennsylvania, and the University of California at San Diego Library with
their excellent library and systems staff.
To subscribe to NewJour, send e-mail to:
majordomo@ccat.sas.upenn.edu with no Subject
and include the simple message "subscribe newjour"
You may also choose to receive a single daily message compiling all the
day's messages in one "digest." To do that, send to the same address the
message "subscribe newjour-digest"
The WWW NewJour archives are provided as a service by the Data Services

Subject: ANNOUNCEMENT: Final Call for Links Workshop
MAKE THE LINK WORKSHOP (WORLD WIDE WEB FOR EVERYONE)
Make the Link Workshop (World Wide Web for Everyone) is an eight
week distance-learning workshop conducted entirely by e-mail. It
introduces the beginner to the World Wide Web (WWW), the Internet's
distributed hypermedia information system, as well as enhances the
skills of the somewhat more experienced user.
WWW's amazing growth has resulted largely from its ease of use and
power to almost instantaneously transport a rich array of text,
graphics, sound, programs, etc. to the computer desktop with the
click of a mouse button.
Having a WWW home page providing one's personal information has
become the 1990's version of the business card, resume, telephone
answering machine, and on occasion, electronic recreation area, all
rolled into one. In fact, WWW provides the opportunity to participate
and collaborate with others at many levels.
The Make the Link Workshop will focus on how to gain maximum
advantage from this simple to use, yet very sophisticated, Internet
tool.
The final Fall session of the Links Workshop is scheduled for
October 30 - December 22.
The cost of the workshop is $20 US.
To get more information about the workshop, please send e-mail to
info@arlington.com
or to sign up for the Make the Link Workshop, please send
an e-mail message to the address:
majordomo@arlington.com
and in the body of the message, include:
subscribe links4
This will automatically put you on the mailing list for more
information about the workshop, and you will receive an
acknowledgment with the particulars about signing up. You may
sign off the list at any time and will not be charged any fee.
If you have any difficulty signing up, please send e-mail
to the address below in the signature line.

Subject: Re: FREE $$$ MAKING SOFTWARE !!!
As a result of this posting (FREE $$$ MAKING SOFTWARE !!!), I will no
longer accept submissions for VPIEJ-L from individuals who are not
actually subscribed to the list. I had allowed such postings in the
past in order to better serve those who preferred Usenet to Listserv.
I cannot allow these unwanted postings to continue. Usenet users
will no longer be able to post to VPIEJ-L from bit.listserv.vpiej-l,
but they can continue to read list traffic.
I realize there are other methods of dealing with these problems, but
this is the only method our staffing situation allows us to pursue at
this time. Moderation is out of the question since we lack the
staff to process submissions in a timely manner.
Thank you for your patience.
