  • D.University of Southampton

Answer: B

LOCKSS is an initiative of Stanford University.

LOCKSS, 'Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe', was started at Stanford University Libraries in 1999 by David Rosenthal and Vicky Reich. Participating libraries each keep a copy of the e-journal content they subscribe to on their own servers, and the copies check and repair one another, so the content survives the loss of any one copy or publisher.

MIT Libraries is associated with DSpace, the University of Waikato with Greenstone, and the University of Southampton with EPrints; none of them started LOCKSS.
