Who we are...
Scholarly Exchange emerged in 2002 to promote innovative, cost-efficient electronic-first approaches to scholarly publishing.
Its founders were the first to
- produce a comprehensive manuscript tracking system
- introduce a complete editorial-and-publishing e-platform
Scholarly Exchange is the first to
- offer a Software-as-a-Service e-publishing model
- experiment with alternative revenue models for open access journals
Scholarly Exchange is a facilitator, not a publisher. Our role is to assist scholarly journals while promoting free and open access to scholarly knowledge. We are developing new ways to sustain e-journals, and we welcome your collaboration.
The not-for-profit entity started with the cooperative efforts of three university faculty, Julian Fisher (Harvard University), Yuwei Shi (the Monterey Institute) and Mike Sosteric (Athabasca University) - each with extensive experience in scholarly publishing and committed to the establishment of effective and affordable approaches to the sharing of knowledge among scholars.
Scholarly Exchange plays no role in the creation of the information or its ultimate ownership, only in the sharing of the highest quality of scholarship as determined by the scholars who produce it. SE encourages its member journals to archive their published material in university and public open archives for long-term storage.
Scholarly Exchange is a registered not-for-profit 501 (c) 3 public charity in accordance with US Internal Revenue Service regulations.
