Portico Announces Preservation Collaboration with the American Anthropological Association

We are pleased to announce that the American Anthropological Association (AAA) has signed an archive license agreement with Portico to preserve their thirty-one journal titles. The AAA is the world's largest professional organization of scholars and students with eleven thousand members. Their suite of journals includes American Anthropologist – the oldest and most widely circulated title from the Association.

Portico's partnership with the American Anthropological Association ensures these valuable journals will be preserved for future students, researchers, and scholars in the field of anthropology. In addition to supplying their journal title list in Portico, the AAA has agreed to make an annual financial contribution to Portico and has designated the Portico archive as the official delivery platform for post-cancellation access claims.

The AAA's journals are published by the University of California Press, one of the oldest scholarly publishers in the United States.

The AAA joins the American Mathematical Association, Oxford University Press, Elsevier, John Wiley & Sons, Berkeley Electronic Press, Symposium Journals, and UK Serials Group as publisher participants in the Portico archive.
