[Esip-preserve] Fwd: Copernicus News: Helmholtz, CLOCKSS, and OpenAIRE

[Anne Wilson]

Hi Chris,

I just heard about LOCKSS for the first time yesterday, at the NISO 
forum "Tracking it Back to the Source..." 
http://www.niso.org/news/events/2012/tracking_it_back_to_the_source/.

Micah Altman mentioned it in his talk on "Needs for Data Management & 
Citation Throughout the Information Lifecycle" as a useful tool for 
replication of distributed content.  I had to look it up: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOCKSS.  Seems to be something the library 
people know about.

Anne
