figshare Preserves with the CLOCKSS Archive
“Persistence is something the research community cares deeply about –
a community we serve at figshare” said Mark Hahnel, founder of
figshare “CLOCKSS provides the secure solution we need to ensure long
term access in our continued commitment to the preservation of new
research outputs.”
About figshare:
figshare allows researchers to publish their data in a citable,
searchable and sharable manner. The data can come in the form of
individual figures, datasets, or video files, and users are encouraged
to share their negative data and unpublished results too. All data is
persistently stored online under the most liberal Creative Commons
licence, waiving copyright where possible. This allows scientists to
access and share the information from anywhere in the world with
minimal friction. figshare offers unlimited storage space for data
that is made publicly available on the site, and as of today is also
offering 1GB of free storage space for users looking for a secure,
private area to store their research. Users of the new site will
maintain full control over the management of their research whilst
benefiting from global access, version control, and secure backups in
the cloud.

Pensoft Publishing with the CLOCKSS Archive
“The agreement with CLOCKSS brought to us a long-seeked solution for
fully automated harvesting, ingesting and preservation of the
electronic content of our open access journals. Besides, the
adjustment of our publishing system to CLOCKSS archive would make it
attractive for other journals’ publishers to use” said Dr Lyubomir
Penev, managing director of Pensoft.
