Digital Archiving and Preservation Policy

Digital preservation is a set of processes and activities that ensure the retrieval and distribution of information now available in digital formats to guarantee long-term, perpetual access. The preservation policy includes the following measures:

Website Archiving

All of the electronic content (website, manuscript, etc.) is stored in three different sources. Content on a server is online and accessible to readers. A copy of the same content is preserved as a backup on two other sources. Should a server fail, other resources can be brought online, and the website is expected to be available in 24-36 hours.

Abstracting/Indexing Services

Our journal's Abstracting/Indexing services store essential information about articles. In addition, some Abstracting/Indexing services of our journal archive the metadata and electronic versions of the articles. Thus, the articles are available to access easily both by these systems and journal website’s archive.
