The rapid spread of electronic mail, listservs, and bulletin boards operating over the
Internet has already had marked effects on how scholars communicate ideas with one
another.1 Beyond exchanging informal messages through these new media, scholars can
now circulate scholarly work in various stages of completion, either by sending an
electronic version to a group of colleagues (active dissemination), or by putting it on a
computer server accessible through gopher or the World Wide Web (WWW), which
makes it available to any interested reader with Internet access (passive dissemination).
Additionally, electronic journals and newsletters of various kinds have come upon the
scene to provide new opportunities for the publication of scholarly material.
