CLOCKSS Executive Director Randy S. Kiefer adds, “The University of Alberta is host one of the archive nodes in our network. We are pleased to have their Press also support CLOCKSS. By archiving with CLOCKSS the University of Alberta Press has ensured that the scholarship in their publications will be available for a worldwide audience now and in the future in a manner that secures them for the long-term good of scholars.”
