Abstract: | Any notion of cancelling very expensive American and European science journals in order to subscribe to Japanese titles is shown to be questionable. Analysis of the published output of several firms and universities, sampling from dozens of journals, and examination of thousands of articles and citations suggest that with a few exceptions, the Japanese themselves place primary emphasis on appearing in these same, very expensive, highly cited American and European titles. While the Japanese do have journals well worth acquiring, their acquisition must be funded by other means. |
