The CLOCKSS Archive has announced that the University of Michigan Press and CLOCKSS have signed an agreement for the preservation of the e-books in University of Michigan Press's forthcoming UMP Ebook Collection which will be hosted on the innovative Fulcrum publishing platform.
Initially this will include over 1000 backlist books from University of Michigan Press and around 80 new titles a year for direct sale to libraries. More backlist titles will be added during the next few years and the agreement will be expanded to include other publishers hosted on Fulcrum, including the groundbreaking open access publishing program from Lever Press.
CLOCKSS and Michigan are both committed to solving the issues surrounding the publication and preservation of new forms of digital scholarship. The Fulcrum platform supports e-books with enhanced features, such as A Mid-Republican House from Gabii and Animal Acts.
