On 16 November the KB organised the first Publishers Day. The aim of this day was to inform publishers about the e-Depot, digital preservation and the current developments. The e-Depot system currently contains approximately 14 million scientific e-articles from national and international STM publishers. The purpose of this electronic depot -which is an equivalent to the traditional depot- is to provide perpetual access to e-publications.
Several sessions took place during the day, in which subjects such as the current policy and ongoing technical developments were discussed. Also processes and the implementation of research results into the KB’s workflow were presented. In the afternoon participants could join a guided tour through the reading rooms and the depot of the KB. Others took the opportunity to have a personal conversation with the e-Depot staff about the e-Depot processes, workflow and long-term preservation.
All in all a busy schedule for just one day, but going by the response of the participants a productive first e-Depot Publishers Information Day!
