ARCHIVE POLICY

This journal employs a comprehensive archival approach, combining the principles of Preserving Knowledge for Posterity (PKP) with the robust LOCKSS and CLOCKSS systems. Through this integrated approach, participating libraries collaborate to establish a distributed archiving system, ensuring the creation of enduring journal archives for preservation and restoration purposes. Content stored within the CLOCKSS Archive and the Global LOCKSS Network is meticulously preserved with explicit publisher consent obtained through written contracts or online permission statements. Our collaboration with LOCKSS network implementers involves the development of governance and legal terms tailored to the specific content, jurisdictions, rights, and access provisions.
