In April, we announced a project to create a new publishing platform for journal content. The project—now known as mPach—will be a package of tools to enable the publication of open-access journals directly into HathiTrust, as well as allow for integration of popular journal publishing tools such as Open Journal Systems (OJS). MPublishing’s Kevin Hawkins recently gave an invited presentation to staff at the headquarters of the American Theological Library Association on HathiTrust, MPublishing, and mPach. Kevin’s slides are available online, and they provide an overview of the history of digital publishing at the University of Michigan, including the impetus for mPach. If you would like more information about about the project, regular updates are available at http://www.hathitrust.org/mpach.
