Abstract

The convergence of dissatisfaction with traditional, subscription-based business model for scholarly communications and the development of new, digital technologies allow us to look consider the claims of new models. This paper describes the requirements of a scholarly communication system and investigates which model – subscription-based access or open access – best satisfies these requirements.
