Migrate, Publish, Repeat: TEI Journals in the Open Journal Systems Platform

The Indiana University (IU) Libraries have a long history of using the TEI markup standard to encode and publish electronic texts, but choosing the best publishing platform has been challenging for certain projects. Before formally launching an open access journal publishing program in 2008, the Lib...
