This article focuses on the connection between libraries and current alternative methods of publishing. The Special Subject Collection Psychology at Saarland University and State Library (SULB) faced the question how a contribution can be made to the availability and preservation of scientific information. SULB decided to interpret its task of collecting scientific psychological data in a modern way and established a fulltext server for psychological documents called PsyDok. A service like this offers much more than just the benefit of a guaranteed availability of electronic documents. By applying the motto "maximizing research impact by maximizing research access", a fulltext server offers a rapid and global scientific flow of information and servs the principles of "Open Access".
