The following is suggested text to use in a publication management plan for a grant proposal which includes use of mPach to publish the results.
The results of the research will be archived and permanently accessible to readers in the HathiTrust Digital Library, a digital preservation repository managed by major research institutions and libraries worldwide. The HathiTrust Digital Library conforms to the OAIS Reference Model (ISO 14721:2003) and is designated as a TRAC-certified digital repository, one of only a handful of repositories that have been certified by the Center for Research Libraries. Using the mPach package of tools for publishing open-access journals in the HathiTrust repository, articles will be converted to XML conforming to the Journal Publishing Tag Set of JATS, an application of NISO Z39.96, with embedded media normalized where possible.
