Researchers and staff from the Press, the Libraries, and the Academic Information Systems within Columbia University have been actively collaborating to develop strategies and models for ongoing, sustainable programmes of electronic scholarly publishing that take advantage of the available new technologies while maintaining the traditional quality and purpose of university‐based research, teaching, and publishing. The evolving structure and content of current projects are briefly described, along with some of the lessons learned and plans for future development.
