- STM Facts Over the last 12 years, the STM industry has loaded up 90% of the 23,000 journal titles. These titles generate in access of 800,000 articles per year for an estimated author community of 5.5 million worldwide researchers. It is estimated that it takes an author 90 – 100 hours to prepare a scientific article and it will take 2 – 3 reviewers 3 – 6 hours to conduct their peer review of a single article. Considering the time it takes the author to write their scientific article, consider the daunting task of the researcher to stay up on the ever growing number of scientific articles., their time is seriously being challenged. Mark Ware’s 2006 paper on the STM industry reported that size of single journal grew from 83 to 154 articles. The length of the average article grew from 7.4 to 12.4 pages and the total pages of the journal grew to 2,216 from 820 pages. A whopping 270%. Considering these statistics are a few years old and the trend is increasing each year, we know that the researcher’s burden becomes more substantial each year. Just as challenging is the academic library’s challenge to manage their collection within their budget. Unfortunately the average publisher journal price increase is always higher than the average library’s budget for serials and monographs. While the publishing community have brought great value to the research community by providing backfiles at a very reasonable cost and providing them access to their entire library of titles. The fact remains that the library’s budget and the publisher’s subscription price increases have been and will remain in conflict with each other.
