    CONTENT MANAGEMENT

    At JEP we do layout, editing, and fact checking, just like most publishers. However, we're behind the times if we don't do "Content Management." This issue is about content management, starting with an electronic book that's been around for ages in Internet years, through a book that you might publish tomorrow.

    So here is the December 2001 issue of The Journal of Electronic Publishing for your reading enjoyment: http://www.press.umich.edu/jep/

    Evolution of an Electronic Book: The Scholarly Electronic Publishing Bibliography http://www.press.umich.edu/jep/07-02/bailey.html Charles W. Bailey, Jr. started The Scholarly Electronic Publishing Bibliography in 1992. In the ensuing nine years he has amassed citations for over 1,400 articles, books, and other publications. Managing that content has been a challenge; his article covers the development and use of SEPB over the years.

    The Indexing of Scholarly Journals: A Tipping Point for Publishing Reform? http://www.press.umich.edu/jep/07-02/willinsky.html by John Willinsky and Larry Wolfson Content management is more than just writing and publishing works electronically (or correcting errors as they arise). It involves making the work accessible. In their peer-reviewed article these authors propose a free on-line indexing service that would help guarantee that all content is easy to reach.

    Electronic First: The Upcoming Revolution in the Scholarly Communication System http://www.press.umich.edu/jep/07-02/sosteric.html by Mike Sosteric, Yuwei Shi, and Olivier Wenker think that it is easier to manage content -- not to mention more efficient -- if you create the electronic version first. Their article explains why (and how) to do that, based on their own experiences.

    Note to Self: Print Monograph Dead; Invent New Publishing Model http://www.press.umich.edu/jep/07-02/poe.html Marshall Poe wrote a monograph on the Duma Ranks, the Russian elite of the seventeenth century. He knew that no more than 200 people would read it, ever. So he published it himself, electronically. In this JEP article he tells how anyone can do that -- the ultimate content management.

    The More Things Change . . . http://www.press.umich.edu/jep/07-02/benson0702.html Philippa Benson reminds us that we need to remember paper when we're publishing electronically.

    Q.A.: Style Conscious http://www.press.umich.edu/jep/07-02/lieb0702.html Contributing editor Thom Lieb shows that an important part of content management is style management. He explains how and why a style guide helps electronic publications, and shows us how to establish one.

    Editor's Gloss: Content Management http://www.press.umich.edu/jep/07-02/glos0702.html We never before thought of what we do as Content Management, but ever alert to the latest buzzwords, we have changed our tune. Read about how JEP's Content Management works...

    Our Letters to the Editor are usually full of praise (which we love), but every once in a while we get a letter that makes us think, or points out an error or problem in one of our articles. Starting with new Letters to the Editor in this issue, we will be linking letters to the articles themselves. If you are not one of those who rereads JEP articles routinely, you might enjoy going directly to our Letters to the Editor and seeing what others think. You might even be inspired to send us a letter yourself. http://www.press.umich.edu/jep/potpourri.html

    Enjoy!
