Hi,
 
I'm interested in B2B e-Marketplaces.  Would you please reference
studies and papers on the subject that can cover the issue well. 
Optionally, it would be 'nice' to cover the below notes as well if
they are
 
Key elements:
 
1. Problems that led to the downfall of many of the B2B exchanges.
2. Important lessons from recent B2B exchange history.
3. Why and how some of the B2B exchanges are flourishing.
4. For the sake of simplification, should transactions be centralized
or should they not.
5. What makes good marketing sense in where to focus your marketing
effort for an e-Marketplace assuming you're focused on the industrial
sector.

Thank you.

/Dusty

"Towards A Taxonomy of B2B e-Commerce Schemes" is a paper written in
2001. "This paper's aims to lay the foundation for a taxonomy of B2B
systems, and hence provide guidance for researchers and practitioners.
It commences by re-examining aspects of inter-organisational,
multi-organisational and extra-organisational systems. It then
considers marketspaces, and places them in the context of
long-established approaches to procurement. The dimensions along which
B2B systems need to be differentiated are then assessed. Some
conclusions are drawn about multiple forms of marketspace that need to
be created, and implications are drawn for researchers and
practitioners." You may view this paper online. The link is

Hello Dusty--

I found several ways you could access Infotrac via the Internet.

The first is the Infotrac student edition (which is much less
expensive), if you're a student anywhere or have a student in your
family. The link is http://infotrac.thomsonlearning.com/

The second is the professional version of Infotrac. You may access
this online. The link is http://www.infotrac.com/Home/Home/home.html
