And another one bites the dust. Via e-mail:
"The Keepers Registry, funded by Jisc, will end on 31 July 2019. From 1 August 2019, you will need to use an alternative service to monitor the archival status of e-journal content."
This is just more evidence that libraries look on long-term custodianship of the academic record as someone else's problem:
"in 2017/18 there were 249 sessions from 63 UK HEIs with around 50% of those HEIs only recording only one session per year. This usage by UK HEIs only represented 20% of all interactions with the service with 80% of activity being traced to users from outside of the UK. The continued allocation of funding to subsidise the delivery of a free international service is no longer well aligned with Jisc’s primary role as a provider of value-for-money digital services to its UK HE member organisations."
