Scholarly Communication

---

In an academic research environment, scholarly communications become
central part of the process of deliberations. Scholarly communications are
carried out using certain channels of communications by scholars and
academicians. Most important ones are scholarly journals, conference
proceedings, research monographs, dissertations, research reports and personal
memoirs. Internet now provides much easier and instant means of connection.
Social media is a boon for any type of communication.
The learned societies – the formal institutions representing scientific and think
tank communities – are primarily responsible for initiating scholarly journals
in their respective subject areas, where members can communicate their results
of scientific research and get valuable feedbacks from readers of these journals
or fellow members of these learned societies. Since the mid-twentieth century
and later, learned societies have started collaborating with for-profit publishers
– for achieving global outreach, global readership and global authorship. ICTenabled
environment helps in global outreach of scholarly literature, more
rapidly than earlier print-only era. Scholarly communications got enormous
impetus when scholarly literature becomes globally and instantly accessible
through online mode in the globalized societies.
This unit is part the Module titled “Scholarly Communications”. In this unit,
the genesis of scholarly communications is briefly discussed, followed by
overviews and paradigms of scientific revolutions, scientific culture and
scientific scholarship.
