The CLOCKSS Archive is pleased to announce that it has partnered with Multi-Science Publishing to preserve their ejournals 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, Multi-Science Publishing has committed to the preservation of their ejournals. 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.
Commented Multi-Science Director Bill Hughes, “The coming of the digital age has provided huge benefits for all engaged in scholarly communication, whether as researchers, librarians or publishers. However, the spectre exists, for future generations, of a landscape of broken links and unretrievable research. CLOCKSS activities make that possibility less likely, so we are pleased to be working with them to ensure that our modest contribution to learning is preserved for the benefit of future generations.”
CLOCKSS Executive Director Randy S. Kiefer adds, “The CLOCKSS Archive welcomes Multi-Science Publishing’s ejournals, covering new disciplines in science and technology, into the community’s archive. By archiving with CLOCKSS, Multi-Science has ensured that their unique publications and flow of information will continue to be widespread in the future. We are grateful, as Multi-Science Publishing joins the CLOCKSS Archive, for its generous willingness to preserve its ejournals in a way that secures them for the long-term good of scholars worldwide.”
