The distribution of research results is fundamental to the progress of science.
But what is happening in developing countries?

The scientific community in developing countries has two problems:
• The N to S knowledge gap
• The S to N knowledge gap

The N to S problemAccording to ARL Libraries experience:
- costs of serials have risen by
~15%/year
- projected to rise by ~1800% by year
2020
How does this affect developing country libraries?

The S to N problem
Publishers face:High printing costs
High distribution costs
Leading to:Low distribution levels
Difficulty in obtaining submissions
Difficulty in maintaining regularity

Problems for scientists
•Scientists face difficulties in publishing in mainstream Western journals
•Local journals have poor distribution levels
Consequences
•Research largely unknown and unacknowledged
•Feeling of professional isolation

“The invisibility to which mainstream publishing condemns most third world research thwarts the efforts of poor countries to strengthen their indigenous science journals, and with them the quality of research, in regions that most need them.”Richard Horton, Editor The Lancet, 1996
