From: Marita LaMonica <[log in to unmask]> Date: Mon, 7 Mar 2016 19:28:54 +0000 Dear colleagues, In recent years Portico has expanded its efforts to preserve the output of smaller electronic publishers—those publishing ten titles or fewer. At the end of 2015, one half of all publishers archiving journal content in the Portico archive were in this category. While this is a significant development, much work remains to be done. Important e-journal and e-book content is still at risk of “going dark” unless we are able to identify and preserve it. How should we as a community prioritize the preservation of this content? Pursuing the "Long Tail" is the first in a series of four Center for Research Libraries’ (CRL) webinars that will examine the benefits, capabilities, and possibilities of the Portico digital preservation service, and its work with the community to tackle the preservation of this content. To hear the webinar recording of Pursuing the "Long Tail,” go to the Center for Research Libraries’ YouTube Channel.
