The CLOCKSS Archive is pleased to announce that it has partnered with the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology to preserve their eJournal in CLOCKSS’s geographically and geopolitically distributed network of redundant archive nodes, located at 12 major research libraries around the world. By archiving with CLOCKSS, the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology has committed to the preservation of their eJournal. This action provides for content to be freely available to everyone after a “trigger event” and ensures an author’s work will be maximally accessible and useful over time.
“Our readership: the researchers, scientists and librarians, want to know that access to the online content of The FASEB Journal will be available to future generations. CLOCKSS is a recognized leader for the preservation and archiving of journals which makes them an excellent choice as a partner for long-term preservation and access to our content,“ said Jennifer Pesanelli, Deputy Executive Director for Business Development and Director of Publications for FASEB.
CLOCKSS Executive Director Randy S. Kiefer adds, “The CLOCKSS Archive welcomes the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology’s eJournal into the community’s archive. By archiving with CLOCKSS, the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology has ensured that the wealth of information they provide will continue to be available to both scientific organizations and the general public now and in the future. CLOCKSS has achieved a rare consensus among libraries and publishers, and we are grateful, as the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology joins the CLOCKSS Archive, for its generous willingness to preserve its eJournal in a way that secures them for the long-term good of scholars worldwide.”
About the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology: Founded in 1912, the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) was originally created by three independent scientific organizations to provide a forum in which to hold educational meetings, develop publications, and disseminate biological research results. What started as a small group of dedicated scientists has grown to be the nation’s largest coalition of biomedical researchers, representing 24 scientific societies and over 100,000 researchers from around the world. FASEB is now recognized as the policy voice of biological and biomedical researchers. http://www.faseb.org
