Securing the Future of Books: A Collaborative Guide to Preservation

Abstract:
This paper examines critical challenges in preservation, such as infrastructure limitations, technological barriers and resource constraints, and explores potential solutions through collaborative initiatives, standardised reporting and targeted investments. Drawing on existing literature and previous efforts to preserve academic content, including journal preservation and digital content archiving, the paper outlines actionable steps to safeguard the future of scholarly books. A working group was formed to create a comprehensive guide for preservation, providing a framework that will support publishers, libraries and researchers in securing the ongoing availability of digital monographs.
