Transition of a society journal from paper bounded to complete electronic: The case of Cell Structure and Function of the Japan Society of Cell Biology.

The Japan Society for Cell Biology has made an epochal decision on publication of its journal Cell Structure and Function. The sole official publication of Cell Structure and Function will be the presentation of articles at the electronic journal Website on the internet, and paper-bound issues will not be published for individual members any more. This reformation of the publication system aims at increasing the activity and the visibility of the journal by accelerating publication of high-quality papers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
