Pre-Print: open Depot Supporng author deposit and access The Open Depot is an open access eprint repository hosted at EDINA to enable all academics worldwide to share the benefits of open access exposure for their research outputs. The service is available for all researchers worldwide who are based at a university, college or research instuon who currently do not have access to a local repository. The Open Depot is designed for authors’ peer reviewed material. Typically this will be an electronic duplicate of a peer-reviewed journal arcle. Preferably this will be the “author’s final version” but can be the published PDF file if the publisher allows this. In either case this is the version of your arcle aſter all of the changes due to the peer review process have been incorporated into the text. The Open Depot is also provided as an internaonal facility geared to support the policies of universies and naonal funding agencies towards Open Access, aiding policy development in advance of a comprehensive instuonal archive network. It does this by offering the following features: a • re-direct service, nicknamed Repository Juncon, to ensure that content that comes within the remit of an exisng instuonal repository is correctly placed. accepts • deposit of e-prints from researchers at instuons that do not currently have an instuonal repository. The principal target are e-prints; arcles that have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publicaon. as instuonal repositories are established, the Open Depot will support the • transfer of relevant content to help populate those new IRs. Meanme, the Open Depot will act as a keep-safe, nofying instuons when deposits are made. an OAI-compliant interface, so, like other open access repositories, its contents are available for harvesng. • The purpose of the Open Depot is to provide a short-to-medium term open access repository for those academics whose instuons do not yet have a repository. Over me it is intended that each instuon should establish its own repository. At this point the content of the Open Depot will be transferred to each depositor’s instuonal repository. In this way, the Open Depot acts as a keep-safe facility. Out-of-Print: PEPRS and CLOCKSS Supporng preservaon and access There is concern about the stability of e-journal tles following disconnuaon by the original publisher, and a number of preservaon agencies have emerged to provide connuing access to content. The PEPRS project acvity, jointly led by EDINA with the ISSN Internaonal Centre, provides a registry service to provide easily accessible informaon about inclusion of journals in preservaon services and highlighng those e-journals for which no arrangements exist. EDINA also supports open access to disconnued content through parcipaon in CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS), a not for profit joint venture between the world’s leading scholarly publishers and research libraries. The mission of CLOCKSS is to build a sustainable, geographically distributed archive to ensure the survival of e-journals for the benefit of the global research community. The University of Edinburgh is parcipang in CLOCKSS with three disnct roles: • As a CLOCKSS steward library acng as an Archive Node and Delivery Host, preserving and making available e-journals following a failure to provide access from more tradional sources. • As a CLOCKSS Board member helping to determine procedures, priories, and when to trigger content. A board of representaves from parcipang publishers and library organizaons governs the CLOCKSS archive. • As a host plaorm for triggered content via EDINA, a JISC funded naonal data centre based at the University of Edinburgh. Triggered content refers to the collecon of orphaned and abandoned content that is made available free and open access to all, when it ceases to be available via any publisher and following authorisaon from the CLOCKSS Board.

Serials holdings from new libraries will be added over me. The catalogue includes informaon about the holdings of the Brish Library, the Naonal • Libraries of Scotland and Wales and the Directory of Open Access Journals. It also includes bibliographic recordsfrom CONSER and the ISSN Register. Parcipang libraries freely contribute and regularly update their holdings data to open • up and promote access to their journal collecons to the UK and beyond SUNCAT supports searching by tle and subject so it is possible to find out both where a parcular tle is held in the UK and also to find what serials exist in a specific subject area. SUNCAT also has the facility to limit a search geographically to a parcular region, city or library, allowing users to tailor their search to meet their needs. Librarians can also use SUNCAT to help their users locate serials, to locate serials for inter-library loan requests and for collecon management purposes. SUNCAT enables researchers to: Discover • journals in their field Locate • where journals are held and link through to informaon on direcons and access Access • the latest table of contents for more informaon Access • the full text where available or link through to their local document delivery service SUNCAT enables librarians to: Help their users to • discover, locate and access journals Locate • journal holdings to fulfil Inter-Library Loan and Document Delivery requests Compare • journal holdings across the UK to manage the long term access of print journals via the UK Research Reserve Download • high quality bibliographic records to their local catalogues to improve journal discovery at the local level EDINA plays a leading role in naonal and internaonal iniaves to support access throughout the research and arcle life-cycle, aiding the discovery, locaon and long term access to journals and arcles from pre-print to out-of-print.

Transcript of From pre-print to out-of-print: EDINA’s role in supporting access to journal articles
Pre-Print: open Depot
Supporting author deposit and access The Open Depot is an open access eprint repository hosted at EDINA to enable all academics worldwide to share the benefits of open access exposure for their research outputs. The service is available for all researchers worldwide who are based at a university, college or research institution who currently do not have access to a local repository.
The Open Depot is designed for authors’ peer reviewed material. Typically this will be an electronic duplicate of a peer-reviewed journal article. Preferably this will be the “author’s final version” but can be the published PDF file if the publisher allows this. In either case this is the version of your article after all of the changes due to the peer review process have been incorporated into the text.
The Open Depot is also provided as an international facility geared to support the policies of universities and national funding agencies towards Open Access, aiding policy development in advance of a comprehensive institutional archive network.
It does this by offering the following features:a • re-direct service, nicknamed Repository Junction, to ensure that content that
comes within the remit of an existing institutional repository is correctly placed.accepts • deposit of e-prints from researchers at institutions that do not currently have an
institutional repository. The principal target are e-prints; articles that have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication.as institutional repositories are established, the Open Depot will support the • transfer of relevant content to help populate those new IRs. Meantime, the Open Depot will act as a keep-safe, notifying institutions when deposits are made.an OAI-compliant interface, so, like other open access repositories, its contents are available for harvesting.•
The purpose of the Open Depot is to provide a short-to-medium term open access repository for those academics whose institutions do not yet have a repository. Over time it is intended that each institution should establish its own repository. At this point the content of the Open Depot will be transferred to each depositor’s institutional repository. In this way, the Open Depot acts as a keep-safe facility.
Out-of-Print: PEPRS and CLOCKSS
Supporting preservation and access
There is concern about the stability of e-journal titles following discontinuation by the original publisher, and a number of preservation agencies have emerged to provide continuing access to content. The PEPRS project activity, jointly led by EDINA with the ISSN International Centre, provides a registry service to provide easily accessible information about inclusion of journals in preservation services and highlighting those e-journals for which no arrangements exist.
EDINA also supports open access to discontinued content through participation in CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS), a not for profit joint venture between the world’s leading scholarly publishers and
research libraries. The mission of CLOCKSS is to build a sustainable, geographically distributed archive to ensure the survival of e-journals for the benefit of the global
research community.
The University of Edinburgh is participating in CLOCKSS with three distinct roles:
• As a CLOCKSS steward library acting as an Archive Node and Delivery Host, preserving and making available e-journals
following a failure to provide access from more traditional sources.
• As a CLOCKSS Board member helping to determine procedures, priorities, and when to trigger content. A board of representatives from participating publishers and library organizations governs the CLOCKSS archive.
• As a host platform for triggered content via EDINA, a JISC funded national data centre based at the University of Edinburgh. Triggered content refers to the collection of orphaned and abandoned content that is made available free and open access to all, when it ceases to be available via any publisher and following authorisation from the CLOCKSS Board.
In-print: SUNCAT
Supporting discovery and access The Serials UNion CATalogue (SUNCAT) for the UK research community is a free tool to help researchers and librarians locate serials held in the UK. It provides information on the serials data of over 75 libraries and as such is the single most comprehensive source of UK serials holdings information. Serials holdings from new libraries will be added over time.
The catalogue includes information about the holdings of the British Library, the National • Libraries of Scotland and Wales and the Directory of Open Access Journals. It also includes bibliographic recordsfrom CONSER and the ISSN Register.Participating libraries freely contribute and regularly update their holdings data to open • up and promote access to their journal collections to the UK and beyond
SUNCAT supports searching by title and subject so it is possible to find out both where a particular title is held in the UK and also to find what serials exist in a specific subject area. SUNCAT also has the facility to limit a search geographically to a particular region, city or library, allowing users to tailor their search to meet their needs. Librarians can also use SUNCAT to help their users locate serials, to locate serials for inter-library loan requests and for collection management purposes.
SUNCAT enables researchers to:Discover• journals in their fieldLocate• where journals are held and link through to information on directions and accessAccess• the latest table of contents for more informationAccess• the full text where available or link through to their local document delivery service
SUNCAT enables librarians to:Help their users to • discover, locate and access journalsLocate• journal holdings to fulfil Inter-Library Loan and Document Delivery requestsCompare• journal holdings across the UK to manage the long term access of print journals via the UK Research Reserve Download• high quality bibliographic records to their local catalogues to improve journal discovery at the local level
EDINA plays a leading role in national and international initiatives to support access throughout the research and article life-cycle, aiding the discovery, location and long term access to journals and articles from pre-print to out-of-print.
Published articles continue as the primary means of formal scholarly communication. As the academic world embraces open access, access to articles is opened beyond the privileged few.
As the number of open access journals continues to expand so does the use of repositories, institutional and subject, enabling researchers to deposit freely available pre-prints. However, the discovery, location and long term preservation of both subscription and open access journals and their contents, articles, remain vital components of the research cycle and a core concern for the library community.
