Scientific research requires access to earlier research results. Over time a system supporting scientific exchange has evolved where publishers, libraries and archives each have well‐defined institutional roles. New information and communication technologies are challenging the established order for the recording of science and alternative systems are evolving. A strong commercial market for STI coupled with decreased purchasing power on the part of libraries makes organizational issues as important as technological ones.
