Springer Nature content can be licensed on an annual basis through a single agreement for all platforms, including Springer Nature Link and nature.com. A current licence provides both current access and continuing access to all material published during your licence supply period.</h4><p>A Springer Nature licence is available to academic institutions, governments and corporations and is purchased by everyone from small colleges on a single site to global organizations with multiple locations. Tailored licensing options are based on the population served and its research intensity.</p><p>We also work with consortia of various types and sizes and welcome discussion with all consortium managers. A consortium should consist of at least five member institutions. The benefits for the consortium include discounts on list price. Members have the flexibility to select the publications they want to include, or Springer Nature can work with the consortium to create customised packages.<br /> </p></div> </div> </div>
