Abstract

This article sets forth some of the background of the founding of the Interpersonal Computing and Technology Journal: An Electronic Journal for the 21st Century (IPCT‐J). It also describes much of the decisionmaking process regarding IPCT‐J, where the issues of credibility, accessibility, permanence, and the associated technical issues concerning dissemination over the Internet as it exists were considered. Issues of scholarship and their relationship to publication (both print and electronic) are discussed. One conclusion is that even if e‐journals are less expensive, easier to access, or save time, this is not going to allow e‐journals to compete with print journals if the content of the e‐journal is not perceived to be of high quality. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
