Digital preservation refers to the strategies and procedures implemented to ensure that scholarly content published in digital formats remains accessible, retrievable, and usable over the long term. To support permanent access to its published materials, our journal has established the following digital preservation practices:
- All digital content, including the journal website, manuscripts, and related files, is securely maintained in separate storage locations. The primary copy is hosted on the journal’s main server and is available to readers at all times. Additional backup copies are stored on separate servers to ensure continuity. If the primary server becomes unavailable, the backup systems can be activated, allowing the website to be restored within approximately 48 hours.
- The abstracting and indexing databases that include our journal retain key bibliographic information for published articles. Certain indexing services also preserve article metadata and full-text electronic versions, providing an additional layer of long-term preservation. As a result, published articles remain accessible to the scholarly community through multiple independent platforms.
- Authors are welcome to archive the published version of their articles on personal webpages, institutional repositories, or other non-commercial platforms following publication. When doing so, authors should include complete bibliographic information together with a link directing readers to the original version published by the journal.
