Access to national licences is hosted by the publishers. The licensing institutions themselves, however, have to provide hosting for the contents as difficulties may arise or the access possibilities even be lost if the service-provider goes out of business or it is taken over by a competitor. A corresponding national, uniform infrastructure is being implemented in cooperation with third-party service-providers, such as LOCKSS and Portico. Further information to follow.
Portico: To safeguard Swiss National Licences the Consortium acquired a 10-year Portico licence (2017-2026) für all cantonal universities, Federal Instituties of Technology Domain, Universities of Applied Sciences and Swiss National Library.
