DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Cost Recovery in Pricing and Capacity Decisions for Automated Information Systems Should fees be charged for the use of scientific and technical information products and services? And, if so, should Such fees be set at a level that will result in total cost recovery? Since the alternative to total cost recovery is subsidization, the issue of total cost recovery is critical to the future growth and development of automated scientific and technical information retrieval systems that are fully or partially financed with public funds. However, the answers to the questions posed have been clouded by both the importance of scientific and technical information to the public as a whole, and by the dominant role of publicly sponsored activities in the areas of science and technology. Both of these factors have reinforced the public good appearance of scientific and technical information in a nation where the importance of free access to information has been a long-standing tradition.
