Academic and professional literature publisher Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., UK, has announced an agreement with non-profit electronic archiving service provider Portico, US. Portico provides a service to permanently preserve scholarly research in electronic form so that this information will remain accessible to scholars in future years.
Portico will receive Emerald content via an electronic data feed, which will be converted to a standardised archival format. They will maintain and operate the archive on behalf of Emerald. Each new publication will be added as and when published, with a view to archiving back issues in the future.
This development will provide Emerald with security in the event of potential loss. Emerald joins the growing list of publishers who have entrusted their e-journals and e-books to the Portico archive.
