Full announcements can be found at http://www.clockss.org/clockss/News ---- Museum Victoria Museum Victoria’s scientific editor Richard Marchant notes that “The museum produces two online scientific journals: Memoirs of Museum Victoria and Museum Victoria Science Reports. Both of these titles will be archived by CLOCKSS and the museum looks forward to a long term partnership with the CLOCKSS Archive.” Museum Victoria’s origins date back to 1854, with the founding of the National Museum of Victoria and the establishment, in 1870, of the Industrial and Technological Museum of Victoria (later known as the Science Museum of Victoria). By proclamation of the Museums Act 1983 (Vic.), these two institutions were amalgamated to form what is known today as Museum Victoria, governed by the Museums Board of Victoria. http://museumvictoria.com.au. Museum Victoria is the largest museum organisation in Australia, and holds a collection in excess of 17 million objects. Museum Victoria operates three major museums in Melbourne – Melbourne Museum, Scienceworks, and the Immigration Museum. --- Society for Longitudinal and Life Course Studies “Archiving with CLOCKSS protects our journal and helps us meet our Open Access obligations,” states John Bynner, Executive Editor.
