Chinese sci-tech periodicals publishing faces digital transformation

China Association of Science and Technology has held 2011 academic Construction Conference, the Committee of China Association for Scientific Research, China Association of Scientific Associations and academic Special Committee members, academician Yuntai, Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that the sci-tech periodicals in China are changing from traditional publishing mode to digital publishing mode.　　OA, the way of "open access", becomes the leverage of borrowing. The domestic related platform constructs with the present science and technology periodical to copy the academic article to the website simply the practice, the Beijing Zhongke Periodical Publication Limited Company general Manager Xiaohong is working to construct one kind of more near international standard periodical on-line distribution and the sharing way--open obtains, English abbreviation OA.　　Simply put, "open access" is a large capacity, high quality, wide spread of academic article exchange and sharing platform, the article author needs to pay a certain fee to make its article on the platform online, users register for free or pay to browse related articles. Xiaohong continued to introduce that from last October, the government's investment in the first phase of "open access" network platform construction, the current framework has been determined by Tsinghua and other network companies to build backstage. After the platform is completed, it will initially absorb a batch of high quality academic periodicals and individual academic papers in all free form to make the platform high quality. Thereafter, a fee of $2000-3000 per issue will be charged.　　Platform income in addition to the author's delivery fee, there will be a number of related information, advertising and value-added services fees. The history of open access to the international publishing industry or academic papers is not long. In the fall of 1987, the New Horizons of adult education launched by the Kellogg Project of Syracuse University (Syracuseuniversity), as an early free, online, peer-reviewed journal, began to approach the OA concept. The real development of OA was in the 90 's, after the advent of the World Wide Web. 21st century appeared the more mature OA publication. The Oxford Journal launched the Oxford Open Project in July 2005 and has been practising open access models, carefully monitoring processes and sharing results. Now, Oxford University Press has 6 completely open access publications, more than 90 open access journals--the authors have received published articles that can opt for open access to publications and pay open access to publishing fees to make them available online free of charge.　　Xiaohong the development of "open access" platform for Sci-tech periodicals. OA into the digital new direction for the Chinese model, Xiaohong said, "strictly speaking, the purpose of OA publications is not for commercial interests, but to explore a new way of academic communication." It was originally a non-profit-making academic paper publishing model, so that scientists from the project funds to take part of the money to maintain the platform to operate on it. However, Xiaohong also believes that OA is a new business model, "open access" platform is not unprofitable, but only limited profits. Because in the OA mode, the profit is no longer related to the issue, the income from the reader market is relatively limited, can not obtain commercial benefits. So, he defined OA as "audience Unlimited, income byLimit ". However, whether it comes from the requirements of the government departments, or the change of the mode of Sci-tech periodicals, or even the demand for new profit channels, the "open access" platform of Chinese Sci-tech periodicals may become a new direction of the publishing mode of Sci-tech periodicals. The ' open access ' platform allows academic journals or papers to be published on the internet for the first time, and can be seen all over the world. This will protect our right to send and receive, and can be repeated to the greatest extent, this is the future model.　　"Xiaohong said.　　At the same time, Lian Hitong, secretary General of China Association of Science and Technology Association, said that the establishment of "open access" platform could spread the most advanced academic theories and research achievements in science and technology field, and also benefit the development of Chinese Sci-tech periodicals.
