Abstract

ABSTRACT New e-information formats and e-services have been developed to support academics in their scholarly communication and access to information. With ever-increasing prices of electronic journals, scholars and librarians have made an aggressive move toward the creation of a new model of information exchange-open access to scholarly communication and information. This paper discusses the participation of librarians in the new model and seeks an answer to the question of why many librarians have been reluctant to contribute to scholarly communication through an involvement in digital publishing. The paper describes the production process of the Electronic Green Journal, a tool for the communication of current environmental research, bibliographies, book reviews, and news about international information resources that are beneficial for building environmental literacy.
