Aims & Scope

The journal covers the areas in which the faculties and workplaces of the university develop their activities. Communications are seen from a broader point of view: as a means of disseminating information, as an important tool of an information society and, most of all, as a means for providing information. The papers do not deal strictly with communications, but they approach the mentioned area in a more complex way and from different viewpoints. The journal is published mainly for university and academy staff, workers of research institutes and also for the wider community of readers.
