SPEAKER BIOS
Michelle Polchow is the head of the Electronic Resources Management Unit at the University of California, Davis. She leads the lifecycle management of licensed electronic resources, including troubleshooting, access, authentication and long-term preservation. Professional activities include several years of service for NASIG’s Digital Preservation Committee, as well as a technical expert for the ISSN International Centre’s Technical Advisory Committee. In 2022-24, she collaborated with the ISSN Centre, beta-testing what became the Submit.Retrieve.Reuse service for bulk uploading journal data and retrieving information about the extent of long-term digital preservation for these titles, based on the ISSN Keepers Registry data (a global monitor on the archiving arrangements for digital journals). When analyzed, only forty percent of UC Davis journal titles had any preservation coverage, leaving sixty percent of the titles fully at risk.
Alicia Wise is Executive Director of the CLOCKSS digital archive where research libraries and academic publishers come together to ensure the long-term preservation of the scholarly record. She has been active in increasing, and preserving, access to research in roles with the Archaeology Data Service, Jisc, the Publishers Licensing Service, the Publishers Association, and with an array of publishers. Her Ph.D. in Anthropology focussed on the Roman invasion of Scotland and local resistance to this in a time of environmental change.
Ella Hitchcock is the Scholarly Publishing Manager at the Stanford Graduate School of Business library. She manages the school’s institutional repository. Her work includes managing digitization projects, overseeing digital preservation work, and developing policy for long term storage and preservation of both digital and physical items. She previously worked at the Internet Archive as a digitization technician and as a web archivist.
