Dear colleagues,
I am conducting interviews on behalf of the Keepers Extra team at
EDINA (http://edina.ac.uk/projects/keepers-extra_summary.html)
exploring a strategic approach to preserving the world's digital
journals. I am writing to ask if any of you would be interested and
willing to participate - by being interviewed by telephone. These
interviews are a first step towards an understanding of how to
segment, for preservation, the 'long tail' of journals published by
small publishers. The interview would consist of questions about how
you evaluate different digital journals in your collection, how you
prioritise when making collection management decisions as well as
questions about how to segment the 'long tail' and share
responsibility for preserving journals published by smaller publishers
and learned societies. The interview is intended to develop the
thinking of the Keepers Extra team and to inform its Community
Advisory Group - a group representing the needs of UK and
international research libraries and library organisations, as well as
the agencies that currently preserve digital journals. We would
really value your thoughts at this stage.
If you are interested, I would be grateful if you would contact me by
email. I would then send you a briefing document and list of
questions and we can schedule a date and time for the interview.
very best wishes
Leah Bijelic
