Cost and value in the peer-reviewed scholarly digital journal information chainHalliday, Leah January 2002 (has links)
The thesis reports research on digital publishing of peer-reviewed, scholarly journals. The aim was: (1) to first describe the activities undertaken by the stakeholders involved in scholarly Journal publishing, a process that is largely uncharted; (2) then to relate those activities to the structure of the scholarly journal publishing chain with reference to various economic or business models that have been tested or proposed; (3) and finally to explain in strategic terms some of the developments observed. Between four and six subjects were interview from each of the following groups of stakeholders in the scholarly journal information chain: authors, editors/referees (one group), publishers and librarians.

Working-class writing, publishing and education : an investigation of three 'moments'Gregory, Gerald Thomas January 1987 (has links)
This study explores the work and experience of working-class writers in three Imoments l and the contexts in which their writing has been produced and published. A class a~ymmetrv of access to writing and publishing is seen to characterise all three Imoments l , disadvantaging working-class people, and to explain a corpus of work that, because it remains largely obscure, both surprises the student by its extent while at the same time remaining relatively 2 modest in quantity. The processes of writing and publishing receive increasing attention and come to be seen as powerfully educational for participants. This by-product~educational strand of (especially recent) working-class writing and publishing is set within a tradition of working-class collective self-education and its success set against a pattern of provided schooling that typically has failed (in both sense~) working-class students. The Introduction sets out the origins and development of the study; explores 80me of the key terms of' the title; expounds the structure of ideas; presents an 'overview ' ; and explains the research activities and '~ase-studv' approach developed. eart I explores a 'first moment of working-class writing': roughly the first half of the nineteenth century. Poetry and prose-autobiography are considered with special attention to a particular cluster of texts and to the precursors and contexts of writers and writings. Part II investigates a 'second moment l which began around 1930, climaxed in the three or four veal'S before the outbreak of World War II and had ended by 1945. The approach here is by means of two 'casestudies' and a brief 'overview' that refers to parallels and contrasts in contemporaneous developments in France. At the climax of the study ~art III explores the context end developments of communitY-Dublishinq and workinq-class writinq since 1971. This ohase of the dissertation draws on study of some three hundred oublications and of the oriqins and processes of the Federation of Worker Writers and Community Publishers (FWWCP) and its constituent qroups. Additionally, attention is paid to such overlapping developments as Historv Workshop and the Oral Historv SOCiety. A brief consideration of publications arising in pit communities from the Miners' Strike) 1984-1985, is used to draw together lConclusion) and underline the main arguments of the study.

Commercial book publishing in ThailandKarnchanachari, Karnitha January 1990 (has links)
The present study involves the gathering of data and information on book publishing in Thailand and an attempt to systematically develop a data base on the book publishing industry. The research gives emphasis to the private sector which has recently been encouraged by the government to play a leading role in national development. Critical analysis of the findings serves as a basis for recommendations to promote and develop commercial book publishing. Almost all commercial book publishers in Thailand are based in the capital city of Bangkok. Regardless of the seemingly continuing emergence and disappearance of publishing houses, the number of publishers have been steadily increasing through the years. The newly established enterprises tend to be non-family business and could successfully compete in the market, gradually catching up with the older establishments. Most publishers are faced with problems relating to manuscripts, either quantitatively or qualitatively or both. The current general business practice is informal having no written agreement between publisher and author. It is an exception rather than a rule that books are edited by professional editors. Distribution remains a major issue in the development of the publishing industry. Consequently, publishers tend to carry out their own distribution as soon as it becomes economically feasible. It is noted that Thai women are active in book publishing with the average rate of female employment among the majority of publishers under study being slightly more than half of the total employment. Statistics on book production during the past two decades show an overall increase of more than 600 percent. Commercial publishers play an important role in the book publishing industry with commercial book production accounting for half or more of the total number of titles published, gradually increasing from slightly over 50 percent in 1981 to over 70 percent in 1986. The annual trade value is over 3,000 million bahts (US$ 124 million), with no less than 20,000 titles in circulation. The survey indicates average spending on books is less than 1 percent of earning. There appears to be a significant correlation between the GNP per capita and book production. The study reveals that in 1986 there was one book for every 2 to 3 people compared to one book for every 4 to 5 in 1977. The publishing industry has been serving mainly the local market and, as such, is significantly affected by government policy and planning. The National Library of Thailand and the Book Development Centre are the two major national organizations promoting book development in addition to the relevant professional associations. In anticipation of increasing potential market for commercial book, certain major recommendations are proposed to further develop the book publishing industry. These include: 1) Strengthening of the national machinery and professional organizations. 2) Systematic collection and publication of national statistics on book production. 3) Promotion of professional editorial in book publishing.

Towards a sustainable open access scholarly publishing model in the South African contextDu Toit, Ina Maria January 2015 (has links)
This thesis reports on a study towards a sustainable open access scholarly publishing model in South Africa. The researcher defined the traditional scholarly publishing model as a foundation for scholarly publishing workflows and processes and the continuation of the publishing workflow as a sustainable business model. This model is simplified in this study to allow for further discussion in the investigation of the various business models of scholarly publishing. The researcher conducted a literature study to identify and define business models used in open access scholarly publishing in the international context and also developed a set of factors contributing to sustainability in this environment. These factors were then used to evaluate and investigate typical examples of open access role players in the South African context, using a desk study and interviews documented as case studies of the various initiatives.
The researcher combined all these findings to make suggestions towards a sustainable open access scholarly publishing by identifying and exploring the various factors associated with open access models in South Africa, considering the roles of all the role players towards output of high quality research articles.
The study found that South African scholarly publishers find the shift from a traditional subscription model to an open access model difficult, because they are not addressing their new client segment and also not acknowledging their own expertise within the publishing cycle.The research also indicates that the approach of either subscription or open access hinders a sustainable open access publishing model, but that the publishing community should instead encourage an approach a publishing environment that allows for both of these models to exist and function. Open access should not replace the traditional model but instead, enhance it. / Dissertation (MIS)--University of Pretoria, 2015. / Information Science / Unrestricted
