Electronic Journal Publishing System - Ciência da Informação

The world trend points out to the availability of digital contents by means of tools of open access, as well as its adherence to the international protocols and standards of interoperability

The outcome is the dynamics and systematization of the editorial processes, the cutting down of the operational costs and a greater expediency in printed publication, in addition to establishing a communication among actors during the editorial process

In this context, the journal Ciência da Informação is presented in an entirely electronic version, using as a tool the software Open Journal Systems (OJS), developed by Public Knowledge Project (PKP), translated and customized by the Brazilian Institute for Information in Science and Technology (IBICT), having as a result the Electronic Publishing System of Journals ( SEER)

The publications put out in electronic format are going through stages of adaptation to the new technological trends. By launching the SEER, IBICT has begun a new cycle, within the philosophy of open access, for editing electronic publications. The effort, as a last resort, aims to transfer the software to the community of editors of electronic publishing, subsidizing the improvement of editorial standards of national publications
