The paper discuse the development of self and establishment's descriptions
of chemical periodicals in two decades. It focuses on the new procedures
followed to publish a scientific paper manuscript using the online deposit which
used now in most o
f the publisher's websites, and this in comparison with the
old printing and publishing procedures and techniques. Optical typeset and
electronic communications effects on self description have been discussed with
the effects of economic, financial, environmental and place required for
storage. The number of manuscript copies, which was one of the main
conditions for publishing, has been decreased and the requirements of chemical
materials have been changed. The paper concentrates on the chemical
periodicals which first published between 2003 and 2007.
