The Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research (JAIR) was one of the first scientific journals distributed over the web. It has now completed over five years of successful publication. Electronic publishing is reshaping the way academic work is disseminated, and JAIR is leading the way toward a future where scientific articles are freely and easily accessible to all. This report describes how the journal has evolved, its “grassroots” philosophy, and prospects for the future.
