Portico is a not-for-profit organization that aims to preserve scholarly literature published in electronic format and ensure its availability for future generations. It works with publishers and libraries through a cooperative archiving model. Portico converts publisher files to a preservation format, replicates the archive across geographic locations, monitors formats, and will provide access to archived content if trigger events occur, such as a publisher ceasing operations. Both publishers and libraries financially support Portico, and it has over 5,200 journals and 100 library participants committed to preserving the scholarly record.
