A strategy for open access to society publications

.
(2004)Preprint.

Abstract

Scholarly societies are typically non-profit organizations which seek a stable and sustainable balance between two basic long term objectives: on the one hand to promote and develop a particular field of knowledge by widespread dissemination of high quality publications in that field, and on the other hand to sustain themselves as organizations and support various other beneficial activities besides publication. As chair of the publications committee of one such society, the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS), I am looking for ways to achieve this balance, and seeking advice from others with the same intent.
