The world of scholarly & not-for-profit publishing is facing many challenges at the start of the twenty-first century, from technical & organisational factors to prevailing social & economic conditions. If scholarly journals, in particular, are to survive, the publishers of these journals are going to have to make dramatic changes to the ways they create & distribute them. Work is already underway at some university presses who have developed creative solutions to overcome these challenges in producing print journals. These early innovators represent an opportunity for all publishers to build on the advantages of e- publishing & possibly reach even larger audiences. This work demystifies the current state of scholarly journal publishing as well as offering a glimpse of hope for journals in the digital world. It will appeal not only to students & researchers, but to anyone who has an interest in the future of publishing.
