Title

Peer review and the Web : the implications of electronic peer review for biomedical authors, referees and learned society publishers

Abstract

The Internet provides researchers with exciting new opportunities for finding information and communicating with each other. However, the process of peer review is something of a Cinderella in all this. Peer review in biomedical disciplines is still largely carried out using hard copy and the postal system even if the authors' text files are used for the production of the paper or electronic journal. This article introduces one of the Electronic Libraries (eLib) projects, funded by the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC). The project - Electronic Submission and Peer Review (ESPERE) - is examining the cultural and technical problems of implementing an electronic peer review process for biomedical academics and learned society publishers. The paper describes preliminary work in doscovering the issues involved and describes interviews with 7 learned society publishers, analysis of a questionnaire sent to 200 editorial board members and a focus group of 5 biomedical academics. Academics and learned publishers were enthusiastic about electronic peer review and the possibilities which it offers for a less costly, more streamlined and more effective process. Use of the Internet makes collaborative and interactive refereeing a practical option and allows academics from countries all over the world to take part
