Jonathan Grudin: "Crossing the Divide"

Grudin, Jonathan. "Crossing the Divide" in ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction, Vol. 11, No. 1, March 2004, Pages 1-25.

Grudin comments on the publishing protocols for academia, specifically HCI. The article discusses the three different levels of conferences (workshop, medium, large) and the ways journals work in relation to conference. There's a discussion of different relevant actors (authors, editors, publishers, community, libraries, etc.) and bits about how online access to publications is altering the publishing protocols. Basically, it's a fantastic overview article of academic publishing, the pros and cons and issues that multidisciplinary communities will face.
