Answer: B

LOCKSS is an initiative of Stanford university.

LOCKSS, 'Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe', was started at Stanford University Libraries in 1999. It is a peer-to-peer digital preservation system in which participating libraries each keep copies of the e-journals and other content they subscribe to, and the copies are compared and repaired against one another.

MIT is known for DSpace, the University of Waikato for Greenstone, and the University of Southampton for EPrints, all repository software. None of them began LOCKSS.
