The second volume of the ESFRI Scripta series is dedicated to\nthe outcomes of the ad hoc Working (WG) Group on Long-Term\nSustainability (LTS) of Research Infrastructures.\nThe LTS WG was created by ESFRI in 2016 to comprehensively respond\nto the Conclusions of the Competitiveness Council of the European\nUnion of 27th May 2016 that „underlines the importance of ensuring\nLong-Term Sustainability of Research Infrastructures and invites the\nCommission to prepare together with ESFRI and relevant stakeholders a\ntargeted action plan“.\nESFRI has previously developed its concept of lifecycle of the Research\nInfrastructures in the framework of the Roadmap evaluation exercise,\nand at all stages of the lifecycle different aspects of sustainability were\nidentified. The LTS WG has analysed the Long-Term Sustainability\nof Research Infrastructures from a broad perspective taking the\nESFRI viewpoint well beyond the mere economical analysis. Scientific\nexcellence is the condition sine qua non for sustainability throughout\nthe entire RI lifecycle, and its persistence is crucial in the long-term\noperational phase. Excellence in science and outstanding quality services\nto the users are imperative for the successful performance of each\nResearch Infrastructure, and they are addressed in the monitoring and\nreviewing processes by ESFRI.
