Springer titles to be preserved by Portico
Portico is pleased to announce the signing of an agreement with
Springer to preserve 824 titles from its online journals collection.
Additional journals published with partner societies and other
third parties will be incorporated into the agreement over time.
Springer is one of the world's largest publishers of journals in
the STM (Science, Technology, Medicine) sector, the largest publisher
of STM books, and the largest business-to-business publisher in
the German-language. Springer is comprised of around sixty publishing
houses in about twenty countries in Europe, Asia, and the United
States.
Through this agreement with Portico, Springer ensures that its
online journals are preserved and available for future scholars,
researchers, and students. Springer has also agreed to make an
annual financial contribution to Portico.
With the inclusion of Springer's publications, over 7,200 titles
have now been entrusted to the Portico archive. The complete list
of titles is available at http://www.portico.org/about/content_digitally_preserved_alpha.html and
a list of participating publishers is available at http://www.portico.org/about/part_publishers.html.
