The Transfer Code of Practice: Overview and Updates
The Transfer Code of Practice is a NISO recommended practice and voluntary code for journal publishers containing best practices for transferring and receiving journals. The code helps publishers to ensure that journal content remains accessible by librarians and readers when there is a transfer between parties, and ensures that the transfer process occurs with minimum disruption. Publishers who register as Transfer-compliant are asked to endorse the Code, and to abide by its principles wherever it is commercially reasonable to do so.
This presentation will briefly review the current activities of the Transfer working group, changes to Transfer, and a brief overview of the Transfer Alerting Service.
