Libertas Announces LOCKSS Collaboration
Wednesday, March 21, 2012

Libertas is pleased to announce its collaboration with LOCKSS. Lots of
Copies Keep Stuff Safe is based at Stanford University Libraries and
provides award winning digital preservation of scholarly content. LOCKSS
uses ACM research award receiving technology to ensure that archives hosted
by libraries around the world have collected all intended content, and
where discrepancies are found content is repaired automatically.

This development represents the second major expansion of Libertas’ article
archiving program in 2012 following our previously-announced collaboration
with CLOCKSS. Libertas is obliged to its authors to ensure that the
integrity of its web-based articles will remain unchanged and available in
perpetuity. To ensure this goal is achieved articles are archived in
multiple international archiving systems.

Victoria Reich, Executive Director of the LOCKSS Program at Stanford
University Libraries comments ”I am pleased that through the LOCKSS
program, Libertas Academica content will be preserved in libraries
worldwide ensuring access for our community's faculty, researchers, and
students.”

Tom Hill, CEO of Libertas Academica writes: “We’re very pleased to deliver
even greater long-term endurance for articles published in Libertas
journals through our association with LOCKSS. We consider that LOCKSS
delivers real value to the research community and we look forward to
continue to working with LOCKSS in the future.”
