Today, electronic journals (e-journals) reign supreme in the scholarly communication landscape. In the print journals era gone by, libraries owned the print journals subscribed by them. Consequently, it is still possible to retrieve an article from the journal held by a library, however distantly located. This is irrespective of a print journal having been discontinued by the publisher or closure of the journal publishing house itself.

Abstract


Today, electronic journals (e-journals) reign supreme in the scholarly communication landscape. In the print journals era gone by, libraries owned the print journals subscribed by them. Consequently, it is still possible to retrieve an article from the journal held by a library, however distantly located. This is irrespective of a print journal having been discontinued by the publisher or closure of the journal publishing house itself.
