EPICo (European Print Initiatives Collaboration) is an informal network with the aim of keeping important printed library materials available in a time of pressure on library spaces and increasing use of electronic material.

In Europe there are several national or regional initiatives to preserve and archive print research material for the user of today and the user of the future.

These initiatives include repository libraries for the storage of print material, and collaborative journal preservation programmes.
