Digital Preservation & Archiving

LOCKSS

This journal uses the LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) system to archive published content through a distributed preservation network.

LOCKSS is open-source software that allows libraries to store and preserve local copies of journals published on the web. Each library regularly compares content copies with others to ensure data integrity.

CLOCKSS

CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS) is an international archiving network that ensures permanent preservation of academic content. When publishers can no longer provide access to content, the CLOCKSS archive makes it openly available.

PKP Preservation Network

The PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN) is a free preservation service that automatically archives content from journals published using Open Journal Systems via LOCKSS technology.

Under our archiving policy, all published content is regularly backed up and stored on distributed systems.
