E-Print Archive

电子印刷品档案是科学研究传播方面的一个重大进步。 它有效地改变了物理学和其他科学界多个领域的研究通信基础设施。 它自1991年以来一直在运作，最近将其基地从洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室搬到康奈尔大学。 它经历了持续的增长，并已成为在这样的普遍使用，美国物理学会和加州大学数字图书馆已成为镜像网站。 其他科学研究领域也在使用该存档系统。 每年提交的数量超过20，000，该网站每月处理约300万笔交易。 该项目对科学研究的进程和进展产生了积极影响，并在科学信息的电子传输和共享方面作出了许多创新。 它使人们能够迅速获得大型和小型研究机构的最新研究成果，并使发展中国家能够更充分地参与研究。 它代表了科学信息电子传播的前沿研究，并继续为一些科学学科提供具有重大价值的服务。 它的持续发展将对许多学科的科学进步产生重大影响。

The e-Print Archive has been a major advance in the dissemination of scientific research. It has effectively transformed the research communication infrastructure of multiple fields of physics and other scientific communities. It has been in operation since 1991 and has recently moved its base from Los Alamos National Labs to Cornell University. It has experienced continuous growth and has become in such general use that the APS and the University of California Digital Library have become mirror sites. Other scientific research areas are utilizing the archiving system as well. The number of submissions are over 20,000 per year and the site processes about 3 million transactions per month. The project has positively influenced the process and progress of scientific research and can be credited with many of the innovations in the electronic transfer and sharing of scientific information. It provides rapid access to current research at both larger and smaller research institutions and allows fuller participation in research by developing countries. It represents research at the leading edge of electronic dissemination of scientific information and continues to provide a service of great value to a number of scientific disciplines. Its continued development will have a strong influence on scientific advances in many disciplines.
