How did dissemination and reception of scientific results change during the pandemic? In this article, the authors report on the experiences of the scientific publisher Elsevier in the "Covid Year 2020". From their perspective, how were science and publishing affected? The authors will tell about the flood of COVID articles, as well as how their own work was affected. Afterwards, the literature supply in Austria during the pandemic will be explored: what can we learn about the changing user behaviour during the nine months?
