Project Euclid and SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, has announced a publishing technology partnership to launch a new Project Euclid platform late in 2020. Project Euclid, jointly managed by Cornell University Library and Duke University Press, is an online host and aggregator of over 100 scholarly journals, book series, and conference proceedings in mathematics and statistics. SPIE will develop and power Project Euclid’s new platform in an innovative technology model that brings nonprofit organisations together for the shared development of major publishing infrastructure.
Over the last twenty years, Cornell University Library has developed and operated a dedicated e-publishing platform in support of Project Euclid’s success. The project’s growth and the sector’s accelerating technical requirements now demand a new technology strategy. “At our current scale, there’s a strong business case for moving to an externally supported platform where we can provide advanced publishing services more cost-effectively by developing solutions together with like-minded partners,” said David Ruddy, Project Euclid’s Director of Information Technology.
Over the next year, Project Euclid will communicate closely with librarians, researchers, publishers, and discovery services to ensure a smooth platform migration.
