Editorial Issue 4


In Issue 4 of HEP Libraries Webzine Jean-Philippe Schmitt reports on the Workshop on the Open Archives Initiative (OAI) and Peer Review Journals in Europe held at CERN in Geneva, 22-24 March 2001.

We get a taste from the papers in this Issue of what is under development or already deployed.
E.Hilf, M. Hohlfeld, T. Severiens and K. Zimmermann report on their achievements in distributed information systems in physics since 1995.
Simeon Warner gives a tutorial on the OAI metadata harvesting protocol introduced in January 2001, and Sara Bertocco introduces us to the Torii portal which is the first prototype of the TIPS Project currently in the evaluation phase.
Stevan Harnad, Les Carr and Tim Brody are strong proponents of self-archiving.
Some people fear that too much publishing could lead to fads and conformity. http://www.iht.com/articles/23414.htm

Publish by all means, but be free not to conform.
