Webinar Description
The Transfer Code of Practice responds to the expressed needs of the 
scholarly journal community for consistent guidelines to help publishers 
ensure that journal content remains easily accessible by librarians and 
readers when there is a transfer between parties, and to ensure that the 
transfer process occurs with minimum disruption. Publishers are being 
asked to publicly endorse and follow the Code of Practice which is a set 
of voluntary "best practices" for the industry but the success of the 
Transfer Code of Practice also depends on librarians asking publishers 
to endorse the Code and making sure they follow it. There is also a UKSG 
Transfer Notification email list and blog where Transfer publishers post 
notices of journal ownership changes. This webinar will provide an 
introduction and overview of the Code and notification service and an 
update on how the project is developing.

Details for logging into the webinar will be emailed to participants 
prior to the webinar.
