          ABSTRACT: The primary purpose of "Towards Electronic Journals"
          (Tenopir & King 2000a,b) was to report the current state of
          scientific journal publishing, not to predict the future of the
          field. We respond to charges that our work treats scientific
          publishing as a homogenous entity rather than differentiating among
          individual subject areas. We defend the validity of our data and
          models as benchmarks, rather than predictors. Despite the
          weaknesses identified by the critiques, the book develops several
          themes for future consideration and provides sound indicators of
          scientific journal publishing and its affect on scientists'
          readership, authorship, information seeking patterns, and on
          library and intermediary services.

              ABSTRACT: This precis of "Towards Electronic Journals" (Tenopir
              & King 2000) focuses mostly on scientists' perspective as
              authors and readers, how changes over the years by publishers
              and librarians have affected scientists, and what they should
              expect from electronic journal and digital journal article
              databases. We describe some myths concerning scholarly journals
              and attempt to assess the future in a realistic manner. Most of
              our primary data involves U.S. scientists, libraries and
              publishers, but much of the secondary data is from a European
              perspective, which shows few differences.
