		Contributions to scholarly venues are expected to provide bibliographic citations to earlier work in the same area.
		For instance, scholarly efforts that are focused on the glorification of the scholar's own nationality or ethnic group are disparaged.

		Overall, the free scholarly electronic journals are competitive in their quality of articles with their non-free peers, although the overall impact factors are skewed to the top and bottom.

	Transforming Scholarly Communication and Libraries
		Scholarly communication—the process used by scholars to share the results of their research—is fast approaching a crossroads.
		Individual disciplines and the scholarly community as a whole will soon need to make far-ranging decisions about how scholarly information is formally and informally exchanged, because current methods of scholarly communication are increasingly restrictive and are economically unsustainable.
		One approach to making scholarly information more broadly accessible is for scholars to retain more control over the ownership of their own publications.
