Non-profit electronic archiving service provider Portico, US, has announced a preservation agreement with Beech Tree Publishing. Under the deal, Portico will preserve the latter's collection of three e-journals.
Beech Tree is an independent UK-based company that publishes the peer-reviewed academic journals Impact Assessment and Project Appraisal, Research Evaluation and Science and Public Policy. Through this agreement with Portico, the publisher seeks to ensure that its e-journals will be preserved and available for future scholars, researchers, and students. As part of the agreement, Beech Tree will make an annual contribution to Portico and has also named Portico as a mechanism to provide post-cancellation access to the titles committed to the archive.
With the inclusion of these three e-journals, over 11,700 e-journals, 43,000 e-books and 10 d-collections from 111 publishers on behalf of over 2,000 societies and associations have now been entrusted to the Portico archive. Further, nearly 15 million articles are currently preserved in Portico.
