Digital preservation service Portico has announced that J-STAGE will preserve its full digital library with Portico, ensuring that important scholarly resources published in Japan will remain available to researchers in perpetuity.
Founded in 1999, J-STAGE is an electronic journal platform developed and managed by the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST). It offers more than 4.6 million peer-reviewed journal articles, conference proceedings, and other types of academic publications published by academic societies in Japan. The content spans 18 disciplines in Basic Sciences, Life Sciences, Medical & Health Sciences, Engineering, Interdisciplinary Sciences, Humanities, and Social Sciences.
The majority of the content hosted on J-STAGE is freely available to the general public, and this content will be available on an Open Access basis at Portico in the case of a trigger event.
