Archiving

Digital Archiving and Author Self-Archiving Policy

This journal utilizes the LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) system to ensure the long-term preservation and security of its published content. Through LOCKSS, participating libraries store and maintain decentralized and distributed archival copies of the journal, which allows continued access to the content even in the event of a journal shutdown or loss of publisher-hosted data. This ensures that all published articles remain permanently accessible and part of the scholarly record.

The journal also supports author self-archiving. Authors are allowed to deposit versions of their work (preprints, accepted manuscripts, or published versions, depending on the journal’s open access policy) in institutional or other repositories of their choice. This policy is recorded in the Open Access Policy section of the website.
