Digital Preservation: The Library Perspective

Colin Meddings of Oxford University Press presented the results of research conducted into opinions within the academic library community on digital preservation. In this context the term digital preservation refers specifically to the preservation of electronic scholarly literature with the goal of ensuring materials remain accessible to future scholars, researchers, and students. Oxford University Press intends this survey to build on and complement recent research done by the Association of Learned and Professional Society Publishers (ALPSP) into publisher strategies for preservation.
