In another partnership initiative, Goettingen University Library, the German National Library of Science and Technology and Nature Publishing Group (NPG) have announced that all universities, government institutions and publicly funded research institutions in Germany will obtain access to the complete Nature online archive, from 1869 to 2007. The national licence is financed by the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft) as part of its national licensing project.
