The Journal of Biological Chemistry (JBC), the most highly cited journal in the life sciences, deploys 21 subject-based specialty sites on the HighWire Open Platform.

The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB) is proud to announce the launch of 21 JBC Affinity Sites: www.jbc.org/site/affinitysites. Categorized by subspecialties in biochemistry and molecular biology, these new sites emphasize recent and most-read research articles, literature reviews and other information in each area of investigation.

In a recent interview with Campus Technology digital magazine, Julie Sweetkind-Singer "discusses the importance and impact of long-term geospatial data storage."

She discusses the differences and difficulty in perserving digital data over the long term, versus paper-based data, as well as the educational and research needs for preserving geospatial data. Julie speaks about the National Geospatial Digital Archve (NGDA) and their recommendations for long term storage of geospatial data, and how this data is being implemented in the libraries.
