Electronic journals in libraries

----------------------------Original message----------------------------
I recently heard from an electronic journal editor that he expected libraries
to print his journal and put it on their shelves along with traditional jour-
nals. I was shocked! The advantages of e-journals include not having to
label, bind, security strip, and shelve them.
Do other e-journal editors expect libraries to be bound by past practices and
traditional formats?
Has anybody else heard from e-journal editors about how they think libraries
should handle electronic publications?
