摘要我描述了一套自动化档案的电子通信的研究信息，已在物理学的许多领域，以及一些相关的和不相关的学科，从1991年开始。这些档案馆目前为来自70多个国家的35 000多名用户提供服务，每天处理70 000多笔电子交易。在物理学的某些领域，它们已经取代了传统的研究期刊，成为专题和档案研究信息的收集者。从这些系统中吸取的许多经验教训应该延续到学术出版的其他领域，即，那些作者写作不是为了以版税的形式获得直接的经济报酬，而是主要为了传播信息（为了知识的进步，伴随着他们的职业生涯和专业声誉的好处）。此外，这些档案对欠发达国家的研究人员同样不可或缺。
Summary I describe a set of automated archives for electronic communication of research information that have been operational in many fields of physics, and some related and unrelated disciplines, starting from 1991. These archives now serve over 35,000 users worldwide from over 70 countries, and process more than 70,000 electronic transactions per day. In some fields of physics, they have already supplanted traditional research journals as conveyers of both topical and archival research information. Many of the lessons learned from these systems should carry over to other fields of scholarly publication, i.e., those wherein authors are writing not for direct financial remuneration in the form of royalties, but rather primarily to communicate information (for the advancement of knowledge, with attendant benefits to their careers and professional reputations). These archives have in addition proven equally indispensable to researchers in less-developed countries.
