Oxford Journals successfully completes the launch of its digital archive
Over 135 years of research is now available online in the Oxford Journals Digital Archive. The collection, officially launched last month, now provides access to all content from volume one, issue one, for nearly 140 journals.
Over three million article pages are included in the collection, which includes content dating back to 1849. With powerful search tools, cross-linking to similar articles, and a host of additional online material, the archive offers convenient, permanent access to a wealth of historical content.
An official ceremony was hosted by Oxford Journals at the Bodleian Library, Oxford. Guests included editors and society officials from Oxford Journals publications; librarians, delegates of the Oxford University Press, and other Oxford University officials.
"Launching our digital archive was one of the largest publishing projects that the Press has ever undertaken, but we are very pleased with the end result," commented Martin Richardson, Managing Director, Oxford Journals. He continued,
"The archive ensures that we can offer a complete and credible online alternative to holding print archives into the future. Coupled with our continued commitment to ensuring long term accessibility to our journals content, through deals with Portico, the National Library of the Netherlands, and LOCKSS, we are confident that we can safeguard access to our journal content for future generations."
