Considerations for Scholarly Publishers When Planning a Platform Migration

For scholarly publishers there inevitably comes a time when content must move to a different hosting platform. It’s a painful process and requires much planning and support. However, there are specific tasks platform providers and production teams can undertake to make the transition smoother.

At the 2019 SSP Annual Meeting, DCL gathered executives from the major scholarly publishing platform providers to discuss strategies and tactics that may minimize some (but probably not all!) stress.
