摘要
科技期刊是人类社会知识体系记录、筛选、保存、传承和发展的重要载体,是推动社会科技创新发展进程的重要参与者,为人类社会进步做出了卓越的贡献.为全面认识和理解科技期刊出版活动的本质内容及其发展变化,充分洞察科技期刊社会价值及其演变,以更全面的认知理论指引当下中国科技期刊事业沿着办刊初心和社会需求及其变化的方向科学发展,本研究试图从科技期刊产生的社会背景及其孕育条件出发,深入剖析科技期刊出版活动在不同发展阶段及出版技术变革时期的社会功能演化过程,并努力从这些变化中挖掘出科技期刊出版活动的本质随着时代发展的变化轨迹.研究结果表明,随着期刊出版技术的不断革新迭代,科技期刊在内容生产技术、载体呈现形态、传播及转化途径等方面不断向前发展,其在人类社会发展进程中的社会功能边界也在不断延伸,科技期刊出版活动的本质已从最基本的“知识的筛选、认证和传播载体”到“信息的组织、记录和留存系统”,再到“科学共同体的连接和互动桥梁”,以及“科学交流与服务平台的搭建者”的渐进式拓展.新的发展时代,科技期刊正迈步在从传统出版机构向高端专业服务平台转型的发展道路上,不少科技期刊的业务活动已经在大规模践行着出色的服务本质.未来,“一本由新兴出版技术和理念加持的专业期刊”+“一个基于‘政产学研用’交织的知名品牌会议”+“一个专业的面向社会大众需求的服务产品(平台)”的“一体两翼”发展模式或将成为一流科技期刊高质量发展的主流选择.高质量的内容组织和出版传播是一流科技期刊建设的基本内容,高质量的“政产学研用”综合服务供给则是坚守办刊服务初心、推动科技期刊真正走上高质量发展轨道的必然选择.
Scientific and technological journals(STM journals)are important carriers for recording,selecting,preserving,inheriting,and developing the body of human knowledge,and they play a significant role in promoting the progress of social scientce and technology innovation,making outstanding contributions to human social advancement.In order to comprehensively understand and grasp the essential content and its developmental changes of STM journal publishing activities,and fully appreciate the social value of such journals and its evolution,our research aimed to provide a more holistic theoretical framework to guide the scientific development of China’s STM journal industry in alignment with its founding mission and the evolving social needs.This research attempted to analyze the social context and formative conditions for STM journals`emergence,and then to examine in depth the evolution processing of their social functions across different developmental stages and different publishing technological change periods,and at last to unearth and understand the trace that the essence of journal publishing evolved with the times.The results indicate that with continuous innovation and iteration in journal publishing technologies,STM journals are advancing in many aspects,especially in content production techniques,presentation formats,dissemination and transformation channels.In the course of human society development,their social functional boundaries are extending progressively,and simultaneously the essence of STM journal publishing has gradually expanded from its basic functions as a“carrier for the selection,authentication and dissemination of knowledge”to a“system for organizing,recording,and preserving information”,and then to a“bridge connecting and facilitating interaction within the scientific community,”and further to a“builder of platforms for scientific exchange and service.”In this new era of development,STM journals are stepping onto a path of transformation from traditional publishing institutions to high-level professional service platforms,with many journals already actively embodying their core service-oriented essence on a large scale.In the future,the“one body with two wings”development model,including“one specialized journal empowered by emerging publishing technologies and concepts”“one well-known branded conference based on the integration of government,industry,academia,research and application”,and“one professional product(platform)catering to the needs of the general public”,may become the mainstream choice for the high-quality development of the top-tier STM journals.High-quality content organization and publication dissemination form the basic foundation of building top-tier STM journals,while the provision of high-quality comprehensive services integrating government,industry,academia,research and application is an essential condition for adhering to the original serving purpose of journals and truly promoting the path toward high-quality development of STM journals.
