For years, Chinese researchers could access the digital information and yet no organizations had the right to preserve such information. This cooperation between National Science Library and Springer turned the situation for the better.
The cooperation with Springer is a milestone for National Science Library in establishing a standard, reliable long-term digital preservation system, and it is a breakthrough for Chinese libraries in terms of long-term digital preservation.
