Digital Archiving Policy

This journal employs the LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) and CLOCKSS system to establish a decentralized archiving mechanism across collaborating libraries. This framework enables participating libraries to construct enduring archives of the journal, dedicated to preservation and restoration endeavors. All materials within the CLOCKSS Archive and the Global LOCKSS Network undergo meticulous preservation procedures, authorized by explicit consent from the publisher. This consent is obtained either through formal written agreements or online permission statements. Collaborative efforts with LOCKSS network implementers are coordinated to devise governance structures and legal frameworks tailored to the specific content, jurisdictions, rights, and access provisions involved.
