Editor's Notes
- Greetings Standards Fans. - I’m here on behalf of Committee Co-Chairs Jennifer Bazeley (Miami University of Ohio) and James Phillpotts (Oxford University Press) - I’m delighted to be here with the NISO team and other standards enthusiasts to give an update - and provide general cheerleading for Transfer, a very practical and useful NISO Recommended Code of Practice
- I’d like to give a special notice of appreciation to those publishers who have agreed to abide by the Transfer Code of Practice. If a journal publisher here has not signed up, that means you have successfully dodged the badgering of committee members Stop avoiding us and sign up! You will have guidance in smoothly transferring your journal publications from one publisher to another in a way that fulfills your contractual obligations and makes your librarian customers and their library users happy Thank you to Equinox, our most recent compliant publisher
- Guidance for Journal Publishers is found in the Transfer Code of Practice. Lots of topics are covered in just a few pages and provides detailed guidance for both the transferring and receiving publishers.
- This is a snippet of the table of contents of the Transfer Code of Practice. Everything a publisher needs to know, whether you are transferring out or receiving content from another publisher: - handling digital content - title access - perpetual access - online authoring system - usage statistics - DOI's - ISSN
- The Enhanced Transfer Alerting System, or ETAS, provides a system for communicating about journal transfers, and includes - notification database - notification email distribution list - notification blog - online form for publishers to fill out the details of a transfer action
- The Transfer Notification Database - where publishers go to login and update transferring journal title information - plus where librarians can search for and find transfer title information In this example I am searching Wiley transfers, either in or out, between Jan 2017 and Dec 2018
- Here is an example of one of the results from that search. - Who is the receiving publisher - Who is the transferring publisher - What is the journal title, society, issn, doi, and frequency - What is the effective date - Which publisher is handling perpetual access
- Sorry, that concludes the general cheerleading portion. I really love Transfer, and think all publishers should agree to comply with the practice, so I'm sorry I've used most of my slides to share my enthusiasm. Now I'd like to provide the Update about what is new with Transfer. #1. Recruiting: Committee members are actively recruiting publishers to sign up in support of Transfer – including on the Exhibit Floor here! We are also reviewing the SERU publisher list, And ETAS to find publishers who are receiving from or transferring a title to a compliant publisher that are not themselves signed up. #2 Revising. Transfer Code was last updated in 2015, and there are sections we realize are unclear or out of date. The committee and its subgroups of librarians, publishers, and society representatives are working on revisions. While the revisions are still in the drafting stage, stay tuned, because you will all have a chance to give feedback when we are ready to release the new draft revision. #3. The Committee is also exploring whether hosting ETAS at the ISSN.org site would help streamline work for publishers. Since publishers also need to register changes at the ISSN site, we are exploring if it is possible to create one place for publishers to login and update information about transfer titles. There is a trial process rolling out and more information will be made available as that happens over the course of this year. #4. Searching. Also, we are looking for additional librarian members. Co-Chair Jennifer Bazeley is working with Nettie Lagace to recruit an international librarian to join the committee.
- The Co-Chairs, Jennifer Bazeley from the Librarian camp and James Philpotts from the publisher side, are the key contacts for the committee and its three subgroups (Librarian, Publisher and Society). I am a relatively new member of the Librarian subgroup, but contact me, and if I can't answer your questions or point you in the right direction, I will find someone more well versed to provide assistance.
- Here is the list of collaborative international people working to make Transfer successful for all of the interested parties, like you. Thank You to those of you here for all of your time and effort!
- Thanks for listening Questions? I’m sorry I’m probably not the best person to answer any deep questions, but I’m happy to get back to you with more information if I’m over my head.
