The founding editor of Orbit, Martin Paul Eve, speaking on behalf of
the editorial board, said: “Digital preservation is a key issue as we
enter a new phase of scholarly publishing. Particularly as we adapt to
open access and the tectonic shifts that come with this, including a
new wave of independent scholar-publisher journals such as Orbit, it
is important that those running these enterprises understand and use
the impressive technological mechanisms that can safeguard their work.
I am extremely pleased that we now have the opportunity to preserve
the content of our journal of literary criticism with CLOCKSS.”
