I've had a note from Bill Cohen, publisher of Haworth Press
Inc.
indicating their offices in Binghamton are very close to the
river, and
as a result the basement of the building was flooded. The
power grid was
turned off and phone service collapsed. The servers are
safe, on the
second floor, and as power went off, they went on battery
back-up and
are now working on restoring access.
The content of the server is duplicated elsewhere, and there
are
multiple back-ups.
Haworth is considering both Portico and CLOCKSS, for
permanent
archiving.
I'll pass on any updates I receive.
