CLOCKSS is a community-based digital preservation system that aims to solve the problem of loss of digital content that is no longer available in print. It works by storing copies of content across global partner libraries. Content is governed by an international board of libraries and publishers. CLOCKSS uses a sustainable financial model of low fees and raising an endowment to keep participation affordable and ensure long-term preservation of orphaned digital content.
