Inform the SCP about the potential for inserting
Internet links
- to other parts of the
same issue
- to other articles in the same title
- to other e-journals the
SCP publishes
- to collections outside the SCP
If you tell us about citations within an article (such as in the End
Notes and References), we will install the links so that readers using
Web browses can move easily between the article with the citation and the
citation itself.
Publishing Services of the
Scholarly Communications Project
- Provides Internet
access
to its publications through the World Wide Web
WAIS access will be
available as long as the editors do not submit files in PDFs or
Postscript
- Display and provide access for Internet users to files
just as they are received from the journal editors
By prior
arrangement,
SCP will convert ASCII to HTML. This arrangement is fairly standard
operating procedure because once on the World Wide Web, the documents can
be
available through text-only browsers such as LYNX (as well as being
available in
full graphic format through more capable graphics browsers such as
Netscape).
- Maintain uninterrupted access for worldwide access 24 hours per day
asmuch as possible
- Regularly back-up the documents, images, and databases
- Word index all files (currently using freeWAIS) for each unique title
(or sets of similar files (e.g., Virginia News, but not separate
searches for each newspaper and television station) and provide online
search capabilities.
- Give editors at least annual statistics for their journal(s). These
statistics will reflect number of accesses via World Wide Web. Daily
statistics are cumulated and are available at
http://scholar.lib.vt.edu/stats/1995.html
- Register all of its journals with emerging directories of
electronic journals. Currently these include InterNIC Directory
and ARL's Directory of Electronic Journals, Newsletters, and Academic
Discussion Lists.
- Catalog all new titles for the international bibliographic database,
OCLC, and for our local public access catalog, VTLS.
Goals for Processing
- Make available to the public each new issue of an electronic
journal within one week of receipt if there are not unusual
circumstances. This will be the norm for on-going issues of an
established electronic journal when SCP receives the ASCII, HTML, or
Acrobat PDF files.
- The first issue of a new title may take up to three weeks depending
on the
start-up time for SCP. Things that could delay the initial publication
include:
- Converting word processed documents to HTML
- Scanning images
- Reformatting tables
- Processing multimedia
data
Goals for Indexing Word-searchable
within two days of public access--for electronic journals [1 week for
newspapers and other
extremely large files]
