Description

Trust and E-journals

31 January 2012 at the Wellcome Collection Conference Centre, Euston Road, London.

Tools and services for digital preservation have been slow to develop and are hard to embed within organisational workflows. Many agencies and sectors report significant gaps in the infrastructure necessary to deliver lasting impact from highly prized and valuable digital resources and those charged with preservation often face complex and highly specialised issues in relative isolation. Arguably, the e-publishing sector is the exception that proves the rule. Perhaps the most advanced part of the digital preservation community, this sector has growing experience in fixing technical challenges and is supported by a well-developed - if complicated and at times dysfunctional - value chain that connects authors, publishers, sellers, purchasers and consumers. A range of service providers and tools now aim to secure this supply chain with digital preservation. Outsourcing - specifically knowing how to trust services that claim to provide digital preservation - has been one of the key barriers to preservation being adopted more widely so the experience of the E-Journal community is of much wider relevance than just the library and academic community.

If the E-Journal market has genuinely solved the 'trust question’ then everyone needs to know about it. If it has not, then consideration of the issues will at least enable a more nuanced reflection on how the wider community might want develop trust in the preservation of more esoteric or challenging content types. Therefore, this DPC briefing day will examine:

perceptions and procurement of preservation services for E-journals
technical architectures for existing services for preservation of E-journals and what they can tell us
lessons learned, problems solved, experiences to pass on
trust: how it is established and maintained
emerging trends for e-journal and e-book preservation

Who should come?

Collections managers, curators and archivists in all institutions
Tools developers and policy makers in digital preservation
Innovators and researchers in publishing policy and management
Innovators and researchers in computing science
Vendors and providers of journal content and services
Innovators, vendors and commentators on digital preservation and cognate services
Analysts developing tools and approaches for business continuity management.
