	Stanford Copyright & Fair Use Brief filed by the Association of American Publishers (April 1993)
		Publishers such as Academic Press play an important role in creating scientific and technical journals, in ensuring the scientific importance and accuracy of the published information, and in getting the journals distributed to the research community as quickly as possible.
		As of March 1990 CCC had distributed over $9.3 million to publishers, and is obligated to distribute the remainder of the fees received (less an average service charge of 30%) which it has deferred distributing (with the agreement of the copyright owners) to cover start-up and certain other costs.
		And without publishers prepared to take the financial risk of publishing and disseminating such articles, there would be no reason for authors to write them; even if they did, the articles would fail to achieve distribution that promoted the progress of science.
