Hello Marie-Odile,

An open access journal is just fine with me.

When are the 2015 papers scheduled to be published?

Algonquian Papers Archive Report

As some of you might recall, I offered at the Algonquian Conference last year in Winnipeg (2015),  to create an online digitized archive of the Algonquian papers, so that  they would be freely available to anyone, and especially to indigenous people for whom these papers might be of very high interest for language and culture reclamation.I presented this report at the 2016 business meeting. For those of you who were not there you can read on and/or go to: http://journals.carleton.ca/ALGQP

I want to acknowledge Pat Moore, Carleton University Librarian, to have undertaken this project with me.

The archive is now set up, using Open Journal  It will be moved to the next level of software that was released on Aug 31, next month, by the end of November 2016: OJS 3.0, with improved fonctionalities. This will allow more flexibility in the design and more control over changes. This journal uses Open Journal Systems 2.4.8.1, which is open source journal management and publishing software developed, supported, and freely distributed by the Public Knowledge Project under the GNU General Public License.

See: https://ojs3.library.carleton.ca/index.php/ALGQP/about/aboutThisPublishingSystem

Right now, we are only using the dark blue parts of the diagram on this page, but at any time, PAC editors could use the rest to make it an open-access journal.


The Archive

See: https://ojs3.library.carleton.ca/index.php/ALGQP/issue/archive

 Each volume is or will be archived here. Click on a volume to see its Table of Content. Each article is its own separate pdf, which allows to provide direct links in citation.

 The archive has not yet pushed out to the various indexes.  We are waiting on the group’s feedback, and on the creation of individual DOIs. DOI: Digital Object Identifier (we are still figuring it out the format with previous publishers--Question for editors / current publishers: are they using the same e-ISSN  that SUNY established?)

 All pdf available (up to Vol 38) are the result of scanning printed text (using my own or Carleton University volumes), so they are an image to which Optical Character Resolution (OCR) has been embedded. This means that they are searchable at about 80%, this is considered good by librarians, but do not try to seach an Ojibwe word, not a linguistic symbol!

Note: If any author want to clean-up their OCR file(s), the Carleton Librarian, Pat, is more than willing to work with you to recompile your manual corrections.

You can also provide any supplementary file you wish to be attached to your paper (erratum, supplementary data, etc.)

 Today, and hopefully as of PAC 40, since these were published electronically, all pdfs should be created with actual text behind them and be fully searchable.



Next

- Please browse the archive and send suggestions for improvement to marie-odile_junker at carleton.ca<mailto:marie-odile_junker at carleton.ca>

- PAC 39 authors: I will be contacting you soon to have you help fix problems in this volume

- Monica and Meg working on getting copyright  clearance from US publishers for PAC 40 and up to add to the archive in due time

- Interface: we will hide irrelevant sections for what is now just an archive

- Should we consider making PAC an open-access journal/publication?
