Dear Andree,

You should certainly read:

Guédon, Jean Claude (2001), In Oldenburg's Long Shadow : Librarians,
Research Scientists, Publishers, and the Control of Scientific
Publishing, Association of Research Libraries, ISBN 01980068130.

Happy reading!

Hello,

I'm looking to read a book on the history of scholarly publishing,
especially journal publishing, giving me the history back to the Royal
Society in the 1600s, etc. Any recommendations of books (or articles)
that anyone can share with me?

Thank you,
Andrée
