      abstract = {The rapid growth of the Internet and the World Wide Web is  transforming the way information is accessed and used. New  models for distributing, sharing, linking, and marketing  information are appearing. This volume examines emerging  economic and business models for global publishing and  information access, as well as the attendant transformation  of international information markets, institutions, and  businesses. It provides those in the public, private, and  nonprofit sectors with a practical framework for dealing  with the new information markets. Topics addressed include  the effects of various technological factors and market  environments on pricing; the relationship among classic  production costs, transaction costs, and the economic value  of intellectual property; the effects of different pricing  practices for telecommunications and Internet services on  the pricing of information; the bundling and unbundling of  information services; changing cost structures and the  allocation of rights among authors, publishers, and other  intermediaries; the effects of markets for complementary  products and services, including advertising, on the  pricing and use of information; and policy implications of  different pricing models.A Publication of the Harvard  Information Infrastructure Project in Collaboration with  the School of Information Management and Systems at the  University of California at Berkeley.},
