LETTER TO THE EDITOR

摘要

I read with interest Mr. Takashi Yamakawa's statement [Interview With Takashi Yamakawa, "USACO Makes the Transition to Ebook Culture," September 2009, IT] that "Information has shifted from print to electronic, so major government universities, and especially the pharmaceutical industry, have switched to ejournals. This is an advantage for us because we do not need to stock any paper copies, which is one of the reasons why our cash flow is good. Some traditional publishers still distribute print products, and their inventory is a burden to their business."
