Abstract: This paper is to summarize problems related to publishing electronic journals of our society and being subsidized by Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS). Our society has already decided on a plan for archiving our earlier journals. Currently some journals are going through the process of being included on the website of J-Stage (Japan Science and Technology Information Aggregator, Electronic). It is also necessary to propagate the academic research achievements of our society internationally. However, these goals can only be attained at a high cost. At present, we are facing the difficult situation of seeking subsidy from JSPS, in contrast to the grants we long enjoyed in the past. So, our efforts for internationalization and drastic enhancement of the journals is required.
