The CLOCKSS Archive has announced the participation of five new publishers in its digital preservation archive. The publishers are: Duke University Press, NZCER Press, New Prairie Press, Mathematical Sciences Publishers and Copernicus Publications.
Duke University Press publishes primarily in the humanities and social sciences and has a growing collection in mathematics. It is an internationally recognised publisher known for its willingness to take chances with non-traditional and interdisciplinary publications.
NZCER Press is the publishing unit of the New Zealand Council for Educational Research, New Zealand's only national, independent educational research organisation. NZCER conducts research and evaluation work with a range of public and private sector clients, and produces research-based products such as tests, journals and books, and services such as online surveys and test marking.
New Prairie Press was founded by Kansas State University Libraries in 2007, joining a growing number of libraries who are entering the world of open access publishing. New Prairie adheres to the principles of open access publishing as articulated in the Berlin, Budapest, and Bethesda declarations.
Mathematical Sciences Publishers produces and distributes scientific and research literature of the highest quality at the lowest reasonable cost, covering mathematics and other selected fields. Their non-profit mission is to transform scientific publishing into an industry that helps rather than hinders scholarly activity.
Copernicus Publications is a publisher of high-quality literature in science since 1994 and an open access publisher since 2001. It specialises in serving scientific associations in publishing and distributing their journals and plays a leading role in the area of transparent Public Peer-Review.
