JISC is interested in hearing views from the community on a white paper it has commissioned on e-Journal Archiving Policy and Strategy for UK HE Libraries. The paper has been written by Neil Beagrie (Charles Beagrie Ltd.)  and is available:

 

from the JISC website

http://www.jisc.ac.uk/whatwedo/programmes/preservation/2010ejournalwhitepaper.htm

 

and for comment and detailed annotation by section at JISC Press

http://archivingwhitepaper.jiscpress.org/

 

The aim of this white paper is to help universities and libraries implement policies and procedures in relation to e-journal archiving which can help support the move towards e-only provision of scholarly journals across the HE sector.  The white paper is also contributing to complementary work JISC and other funders are commissioning on moving towards e-only provision of Journals.

 

Comments are invited on this draft up until 12th November 2010, either via JISC Press or by email direct to [log in to unmask] (cc [log in to unmask])
