Portico is pleased to announce that Edward Elgar will preserve its
entire collection of e-journals and e-books with Portico.

"We are delighted to be partnering with Portico," said Tim Williams,
managing director, Edward Elgar Publishing. "We consulted widely with
librarians before developing Elgaronline, our new electronic book and
journal platform, to ensure we created a product that met library
requirements and was an easy acquisition decision. Digital
preservation is clearly an important component of the additional value
that libraries get when using publisher platforms and many of our
largest customers work closely with Portico."

Founded in 1986, Edward Elgar (http://www.e-elgar.co.uk/) is an
international family-run publisher in economics, finance, business and
management, law and public policy. Elgaronline will launch with more
than 2,000 monograph and reference book titles and a growing list of
journals. Elgar publishes more than 300 e-book titles each year.

Portico will act as a perpetual access mechanism for both Edward
Elgar’s e-journals and e-books.
