Abstract: This paper discusses the issue of achieving sustainability in e-Social Science and e-Science more generally. We aim to examine what is meant by sustainability and present a conceptual model that can help to illuminate what constellations of technical and social infrastructure underpin current usage and in what areas interventions may be needed to sustain future operation and usage of an e-Infrastructure. We then turn to a discussion of features of different national contexts and look at sustainability of the e-Infrastructure for the social sciences currently being developed in the UK.
