The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, defines 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). They are a call for action by all countries to build a global partnership to end poverty, improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth. Among these goals, two are particularly relevant to JASPER, a joint project involving the Directory of Open Access Journals, Keepers Registry, CLOCKSS, Internet Archive and Public Knowledge Project. JASPER, standing for Journals preserved, aims at supplying various archiving options to non-APC OA journals that are at risk of vanishing from the web. JASPER is thus in line with SDG 11 that includes a specific action regarding the protection of world’s cultural (and scientific) heritage. JASPER is also in line with SDG that promotes international cooperation on and access to science, technology and innovation. The presentation is based on statistics from Keepers Registry and shows the extent of the task ahead to preserve the scientific record and hence scientific research itself.
