CLOCKSS, a not for profit joint venture between the world's leading scholarly publishers and research libraries, has announced a partnership with the American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics (ASPET). Under the deal, ASPET will preserve their journals in CLOCKSS's geographically and geopolitically distributed network of redundant archive nodes, located at 12 major research libraries around the world.
CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS) aims to build a sustainable, geographically distributed dark archive to ensure the long-term survival of Web-based scholarly publications for the benefit of the greater global research community.
By archiving with CLOCKSS, ASPET has committed to CLOCKSS for preservation of its society's journals. This action provides for content to be freely available to everyone after a 'trigger event' and ensures that an author's work will be maximally accessible and useful over time.
