UKSG Transfer Update (2011 CrossRef Workshops)
- 1. UKSG TRANSFER Code of Practice A collaborative project to improve journal transfers
Notes de l'éditeur
- With the continuing exponential growth of electronic resources in the past ten years, the ability to track electronic journal movement and changes from publisher to publisher has been a nightmare for librarians and other staff who work with these electronic journals. There has also been an increase in the movement of electronic journals between publishers making this a major issue for those w ork ing with electronic journals . Problems arising from journals changing publishers are currently principal sources of frustration, dissatisfaction and debate between publishers and librarians and even between publishers themselves. For example, as the Electronic Resources Librarian at Wayne State University, investigating electronic journal access issues is a primary job responsibility. When an electronic journal title changes publisher, the journal URL link can break causing problems with accessing the title. There can also be problems with incomplete subscription holdings and post cancellation access when the title transfers. When these things happen, it can cause severe disruption to the end user and patron. The electronic journals industry continu es to develop and intensify in its growth. It is necessary and sometimes crucial for librarians to get this information communicated to them so that they can provide essential uninterrupted access and service to their patrons.
- Both the Transferring Publisher and the Receiving Publisher have roles in complying with the code. Using “reasonable efforts to ensure that the new contract are consistent with the code and is not intended to be implemented in a manner that would require either party to Engage in conduct prohibited by law. With access to the title, the transferring publisher is to provide access to the title until the receiving publisher is able to provide access to it Digital Content files will be made available from the transferring pub to the receiving pub within a certain time frame Subscription lists will be made available from transferring publisher to receiving pub. Receiving pub will contact current customers with updated lists The transferring pub will provide the URL to the receiving pub or put a redirect in place Both the transferring pub and the receiving pub will make reasonable efforts to communicate the information about the transfer to the customers If DOI names have been assigned, both the transferring pub and the receiving pub will follow relevant guidelines established by the appropriate registration agencies ** more details about these are available on the transfer website and in the code document
- I talked a bit at the beginning about Best Practices and them being an “industry wide consensus”. Best practices, like transfer, help to take us
- Participate of course! Publishers that are thinking of adopting the code can look to dedicated current participating publishers for guidance in the areas of: Timelines, communication ideas (listservs, email blasts, website information, the transfer blog and transfer lists) they can take a look at how pubs have handled transfers
- The transfer working group is hard at work with continuing to address the challenges relating to title transfers Transfer has already affected the industry in a roundabout way. This initiative has increased awareness of the need for publishers to let libraries know how they are updating their products. Almost every major publisher that provides electronic resource content has changed or altered their online websites and content in the past few years. Many of them have been keen enough to realize that the changes they make affect the libraries, patrons and users in extraordinary ways. Transfer was the beginning of creating this necessity for letting consumers know that changes are on the way.
