Archiving Policy

Digital Preservation and Archiving

JACoIT is committed to ensuring the long-term preservation, accessibility, and availability of all published scholarly content. The journal supports digital preservation and archiving practices to maintain permanent access to articles published on the journal platform.

 

LOCKSS and CLOCKSS

JACoIT supports digital preservation through systems compatible with LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) and CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS) technologies.

 

LOCKSS

LOCKSS is a distributed archiving system developed by Stanford University Libraries that enables libraries and institutions to preserve digital scholarly content through decentralized and redundant storage mechanisms.

This system helps ensure that journal content remains secure, accessible, and recoverable over time.

 

CLOCKSS

CLOCKSS is a community-governed preservation initiative based on LOCKSS technology. It provides long-term digital preservation for scholarly publications by maintaining archived copies in geographically distributed locations worldwide.

The system is designed to ensure continued access to scholarly content in the event of technical failure, platform discontinuation, or data loss.

 

PKP Preservation Network

JACoIT is managed using the Open Journal Systems platform and supports preservation compatibility with the PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN) to enhance long-term digital accessibility and preservation.

 

Backup and Data Security

The journal performs regular data backups and maintains preservation practices to protect published articles, metadata, and journal files from accidental loss or system failure.

 

Persistent Access

JACoIT is committed to maintaining continuous access to its published content. In the event of system migration or platform updates, all reasonable efforts will be made to preserve article accessibility and metadata integrity.

 

Open Access Commitment

As an open-access journal, JACoIT provides immediate and unrestricted access to all published content to support the global exchange of scientific knowledge.
