New Pilot: Diamond Open Access

CLOCKSS

CLOCKSS is proud to launch a pilot program to preserve Diamond Open Access publications - at no cost to participating libraries, whether current supporters or new to our community.

Diamond OA journals, published without author or reader fees, play a vital role in inclusive, community-driven scholarship. Yet, many lack the resources for long-term digital preservation. This initiative addresses that gap, ensuring these valuable contributions remain accessible, discoverable, and secure for future generations.

For our current library partners and those considering becoming CLOCKSS supporters, this pilot showcases the tangible value of your investment. By supporting CLOCKSS, you help preserve a critical segment of open scholarship while reinforcing an equitable and resilient publishing landscape. Your participation not only secures the future of Diamond journals—it affirms a shared commitment to protecting diverse, high-quality research as a public good.
