You can learn more about how SP supports the long-term preservation of eresources in our 2024-2025 Annual Report and in the Spotlight section of our September 2025 Newsletter, contributed by eresource staff at Ontario libraries.

Newsletter: oculsp.ca/459pm

We receive independent copies of journal content from publishers, which we then host on servers at the University of Toronto Libraries and preserve in our Trustworthy Digital Repository (TDR).

Preservation rights for eresources hosted by SP include local load, perpetual access, and transformation rights, allowing us to migrate content to other formats as technology becomes obsolete, extending access long into the future.

Canadian OJS journals interested in hosting and preserving their OA content with SP Journals can reach out to [email protected] to discuss local loading rights.

Our Journals Team recently reviewed our OJS holdings against a dataset of Canadian Scholarly Journals, available on Borealis, to assess gaps in our collection and explore opportunities for outreach to Canadian OJS journals that are not currently available on our platform.

Les groupes ont élaborés des recommandations visant à améliorer la visibilité des publications en Libre Accès dans les dépôts et à aider les équipes chargées des dépôts dans leurs travaux.

Ces recommandations sont disponibles sur TSpace et d'autres seront ajoutées à l'avenir : oculsp.ca/2tr9z
