Split into three sections examining the technological context, changing research behaviour and the roles and responsibilities of other key actors including researchers, funders, universities, research institutes, publishers and libraries, this volume manages to pinpoint all the key agents of change.This is essential reading for all the key players in the scholarly communications landscape including researchers, librarians, publishers, funders, academics and HE institutions.
