ABSTRACT:       The reform of Russian science is being discussed widely
in the mass media and on the Internet. A new wave of the discussion rose after the publication of the Thomson Reuters Report, which stated a decrease in Russia's contribution to the world information flow. These problems were addressed in part in the article "Russia Must Become a Scientific Superpower" by RAS Corresponding Member S.M. Rogov (Her. Russ.
Acad. Sci. 80, 313 (2010)). The assessment of scientific activity, the attitude to which in the scientific community is controversial, is discussed in the article published below.

ABSTRACT:       This white paper is a collaborative endeavor of many
individuals, including members of the American Association of Law Libraries and its Digital Access to Legal Information Committee (DALIC), formerly the Electronic Legal Information Access & Citation (ELIAC) Committee. First, Justice Yvonne Kauger introduces the topic by identifying the groundbreaking steps taken by the Oklahoma Supreme Court.
Law librarians Carol Billings and Kathy Carlson next provide a detailed and comprehensive history of citation reform and the American Association of Law Libraries' leadership and involvement in the issue. They also summarize the citation reform steps taken in selected jurisdictions.
Finally, John Cannan, current DALIC member, provides a look to the future, identifying reasons to advance needed citation reform now.
