Scholarly Communication

Scholarly communication can be thought of as the system through which research and scholarship is created, evaluated, distributed, and preserved (ACRL, Principles and Strategies for the Reform of Scholarly Communication). It encompasses traditional publications (books, journal articles, and conference proceedings), continually emerging publications (working papers and blogs), research objects such as datasets and even methods for verifying scientific claims.
