Journals using Scholastica Open Access Publishing can now have their articles automatically deposited into the Portico digital preservation service.
One of the most important steps that online journals should take to ensure that readers will always have access to their scholarship, even if the journal is discontinued or its website is compromised, is to deposit all articles into a digital preservation service. Creating the XML and properly organising and naming content files so that they are formatted for ingestion by preservation services can be time consuming and require technical knowledge that many journal editors and publishers do not have.
Journals that use Portico can now request to have their Scholastica and Portico accounts connected so that all of the articles they publish via Scholastica are deposited into Portico. Any time journals update an article Scholastica will also automatically deposit the new version into Portico, so the archive always has the latest content. Scholastica will take care of formatting the articles for ingestion into Portico. The journal's content will be therefore be added to the archive with no work on the part of the editors.
