E-journal publishing is considered part of the library’s efforts to promote wider access to academic scholarship. Therefore, future services will likely be available only to journals that are open access. III. Other Journal Hosting and Publishing Services Libraries are not the only entities providing a range of journal hosting and publishing programs in the digital environment. A growing number of organizations, both for profit and non-profit, are offering these types services, often for a fee. The services tend to be more comprehensive than those offered by libraries. Several examples of Canadian service providers are included below: Case Study: Érudit www.Érudit.org Érudit is a multi-institutional publishing consortium comprising the Université de Montréal, the Université Laval and the Université du Québec à Montréal. It is a non-profit society that offers an innovative model for the promotion and dissemination of research outputs. Érudit forms the “Quebec node” of the Synergies project and is both a publisher and an aggregator. It serves as a publishing centre for journals supported by the Fonds québécois de recherche sur la société et la culture. Retrospective digitization is done for more than half of the 67 journals. Érudit has been instrumental in providing online access to Quebec, French-language journals. The Érudit platform aggregates and provides access to several types of documents: academic journals, e-books, proceedings, theses and dissertations, and other documents and data. A specific editorial process is applied to each type, and a search tool allows all types of documents in the entire collection to be queried, while also presenting results in the various categories. The Érudit platform currently provides access to over 140 journals covering a wide range of disciplines, most of which are Canadian French language publications. Érudit requires that all journals provide open access to their publications within two-years of publication. 10 of the journals in the collection are full open access. The other journals are available through subscription for up to two years, after which they are available free of charge. Over 80% of the content is open access while still allowing journals to obtain the revenue they need to ensure the continuation of their publishing projects. The Érudit platform also includes an e-Books and Conference Proceedings zone, with the primary concern of publishing within short deadlines. The Digital Publishing Service for Proceedings permits dissemination in <strong>PDF</strong> format, as well as offering search services. At the same time Érudit provides an access page structure for the digital publishing of theses from various universities. The publishing process adheres to the most consistent standards applicable to digital book 15
processing with respect to both eBook and Web texts. Apart from the digital processing of books, this area also serves as an experimental zone for publishers and academics studying uses and new services for readerships. Érudit also hosts and disseminates other types of non-peer review content such as reports and research notes, lectures, communications and other content that authors and researchers want to make available online (in text, audio or multimedia formats). It is both freely accessible and independent of the journals Érudit publishes. Case Study: Canadian Centre for Studies in Publishing Press www.ccsppress.com The Canadian Centre for Studies in Publishing (CCSP) Press publishes works that examine publishing (excluding newspapers), report the results of research into publishing, and inform students of the practicalities of publishing. CCSP Press publishes for the scholarly, educational and trade markets, and is an innovative lab where new models and technologies of publishing will be developed and investigated with the intent of advancing industry practice. CCSP Press addresses the needs of a wide range of journal publishers, delivering support on all levels of the journal publishing process. In support of their participation in the Synergies project and their partnership with the SFU Library and the Public Knowledge Project, CCSP Press has made available various publishing fee-based services including journal founding, transition of print to online journal publishing, editing, layout, proof-reading, marketing, and subscriptions management to assist journal in their publishing activities. Case Study: Multimed Inc. www.multi-med.com Multimed Inc. is a Canadian-based international medical publishing and marketing corporation that was established in 1980. It publishes medical textbooks, reference books, periodicals, and peer-reviewed journals and offers a complete selection of publishing services and products. Recently, Multimed Inc. launched a fee-based publishing service for open access journals. Multimedia will publish an open access journal using the OJS software. Multimed Inc. open access journals provide free access to the full text of articles and permit self-archiving by authors. They do not charge authors or authors’ institutions for article submission, processing, or publication from the authors or authors' institution. The services offered, which can be tailored to suit the needs of individual journals, are as follows: • Journal website creation and management • Online manuscript submission and peer-review systems • Advertisement management 16
