It has witnessed the biggest changes ever for several decades. These changes embrace: a considerable increase in the number of journals of the global impact, emerging of new research branches and accompanying, relevant journals (biophotonics, THz technology, metamaterials, optics of negative refraction), a fast 'internetization' of journals, with all consequences of this process (leading in the near future to the confinement of the role of a pure text and classical figures in favor of dynamic multimedia presentations of the research results), and a complete change of bibliometric tools measuring the objective value of the publications. The paper tries to define the PSP Photonics Letters of Poland in a wider context of the virtual journal market and the accessibility of research results in the global network. <br /><br /> Full Text: <a class="file" href="/PLP/index.php/letters/article/view/1-1/1" target="_parent">PDF</a> <br /> <strong><br />References:</strong> <ol> <li> SPIE [spie.org]; SPIE Poland Chapter [spie.pl]; PSP [photonics.pl]; Photonics Letters of Poland [photonics.pl/PLP] </li><li> T.R.Wolinski, R.S.Romaniuk, "Photonics Society of Poland established", Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences - Technical Sciences 56, .2 ( 2008), pp. 197-202 </li><li> R.S.Romaniuk, "Photonics Letters ? a new, peer reviewed Internet publication", Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences - Technical Sciences, .56, 3 (2008), pp. 301-303 </li> </ol> ER -
