New JSTOR Digital Stewardship Services Will Streamline Preservation and Discovery
Kevin Guthrie, president of ITHAKA, shares the following:For thirty years, JSTOR has partnered with libraries and the broader academic community to leverage technology in service of a shared mission: preserving knowledge, expanding access, and supporting the essential work of research, teaching, and learning. … [Now] I’m excited to share the next step in that work: the launch of JSTOR Digital Stewardship Services. This new offering is the result of deep collaboration with our global community of librarians, archivists, and others entrusted with the care of unique and culturally significant collections. It … introduces a set of tools designed to meet one of today’s most pressing challenges: how to process and make discoverable the vast and growing collections that remain hidden from view. … [T]his new service integrates digital asset management, long-term preservation (powered by Portico), and a first-of-its-kind, AI-assisted collections processing tool—all within a seamless, cloud-hosted platform. At its core, Digital Stewardship Services is about helping institutions scale the work they’re already doing to meet the ends that matter. By making some of the most time-intensive tasks faster and more efficient, we aim to free up capacity for the deeper, more meaningful aspects of stewardship—those that require human expertise, judgment, and context.
