The CLOCKSS Archive is pleased to announce that it has partnered with the IET to preserve its entire digital range in CLOCKSS’s preservation archive, located at 12 major research libraries around the world. By archiving with CLOCKSS, the IET has committed to the preservation of its Digital Library which includes IET e-Journals, e-Books, conference and magazine content, as well as IET Inspec. This action ensures the IET’s content is freely available to everyone after a “trigger event” and ensures an author’s work will be maximally accessible and useful over time.
Diane Richards, Publishing Strategic Relations Manager at the IET said, “We are committed to ensuring that all digital content published by the IET is available in perpetuity and our partnership with CLOCKSS now guarantees that content in the Digital Library will be available to those who require it.”
CLOCKSS Executive Director Randy S. Kiefer adds, “The CLOCKSS Archive welcomes the IET’s digital range into the community’s archive. By archiving with CLOCKSS, the IET has ensured that their various publications in engineering and technology will be available for a worldwide audience now and in the future. We are grateful, as the IET joins the CLOCKSS Archive, for its generous willingness to preserve its content in a way that secures them for the long-term good of scholars worldwide.”
