| This move applies
to all titles and will create a searchable archive of all
issues that are available online up to and including 2003
volumes. The range of volumes that are made available will
be kept under review. Print copies of back issues will continue
to be available for purchase. For a full list of journals,
please see below.
This announcement comes amidst increasing interest and, in
some cases, concern surrounding access to scientific information.
Channel View Publications believe that it is vital that publishers,
academics and librarians continue to search for ways that
research can be made available to the widest possible audience
whilst maintaining the financial viability of the publishing
process. In reality, given differences in funding, this will
probably mean a combination of approaches depending on the
size of journal, the geographical focus and the disciplinary
areas. Some journals will opt for an open access, 'author
pays' model (assuming funding is available), whilst others
will retain a more traditional subscriptions model, but with
efforts being made to allow wider access.
Such efforts may include open access to back issues, as with
the offer above, and/or geographical open access for institutions
and academics that do not have the funding to subscribe (Multilingual
Matters/ Channel View Publications already offer free or reduced
price subscriptions to libraries in developing countries).
Access to the online archive will be via Channel View Publications'
new online platform: http://www.channelviewpublications.net
This will also be the address for online access to current
volumes, which will be restricted to subscribers only. For
more information about our access models, please feel free
to contact us via email
Multilingual Matters and Channel View Publications hope that
this resource will prove a valuable research tool for academics
and practitioners alike.
