JISC has announced a one-year consultancy on archiving e-publications, particularly e-journals that libraries license rather than own. The project will study how existing licensing terms help or hurt long-term access to journals, and evaluate how other licensing terms or long-term access arrangements could do better.

Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
