[Online publishing in the Internet age].
The availability of full text medical journal articles is rapidly increasing with the increased availability of the Internet. The potentials of the new technology present researchers, publishers, and librarians with new problems and challenges. Some resources are made available free of charge, whereas others are distributed as parts of large licences negotiated between publishers and consortia of research libraries. How can researchers maintain an overview of the constantly changing resources? How can libraries cope with tasks rapidly redefined by the technology? And how can publishers survive when production and distribution of literature information, including the handling of peer reviewing, might just as well be performed by the researchers themselves or their organisations? The present paper presents some of the resources available and discusses both national and international projects and activities that deal with these questions.
