In this issue's guest editorial, Fytton Rowland casts an academic eye over the question of what users want. Kent Anderson of the New England Journal of Medicine explores some ideas about the useful archive. Keith Silver of Academic Press/Elsevier Science reviews access for developing countries Andrew Berin (CUP) surveys some of the current models for accessing online journals and predicts which are likely to survive and Alastair Dryburgh casts some helpful light on how to manage profitability in the current climate. Finally, Leanne Wiseman ( Faculty of Law, Queensland University of Technology) surveys some copyright developments in Australia.
