JoMEAR Publication Policy

Digital Archiving & Preservation Policy

Journal of Management, Economics, and Accounting Research (JoMEAR) is committed to maintaining the long-term availability, accessibility, integrity, and preservation of its published scholarly content.

1. Digital Preservation Policy

Journal of Management, Economics, and Accounting Research (JoMEAR) recognizes digital preservation as an essential component of responsible scholarly publishing. The journal is committed to maintaining access to published articles and associated scholarly records over the long term, including in circumstances where the journal website or publisher's primary publishing platform becomes unavailable.

The journal therefore maintains a digital preservation strategy that combines the Open Journal Systems (OJS) publishing infrastructure, routine publisher-managed backups, persistent identifiers, and participation in appropriate external preservation services.

2. PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN)

Long-Term Preservation Strategy

JoMEAR uses Open Journal Systems (OJS) and supports preservation through the Public Knowledge Project Preservation Network (PKP PN), subject to successful activation, eligibility, and deposit status within the PKP PN service.

PKP PN is a distributed digital preservation network designed for journals using Open Journal Systems. Its preservation infrastructure is based on LOCKSS technology and is intended to preserve scholarly journal content independently from the journal's primary web server.

The purpose of this preservation mechanism is to ensure that preserved scholarly content can remain available for long-term scholarly access even if the journal's original publishing platform becomes unavailable.

3. Backup and Content Integrity

In addition to external preservation arrangements, the publisher maintains operational backups of the journal's digital publishing environment. These measures are intended to reduce the risk of data loss and support restoration of journal content when technical failures occur.

6. Persistent Identifiers and Metadata

JoMEAR assigns Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) to published articles where applicable.

Authors depositing published articles in external repositories are encouraged to retain the original DOI and bibliographic citation.

7. Preservation and Continuity Commitment

The journal and its publisher are committed to protecting the scholarly record. Digital preservation arrangements are intended to support continued access to published content in the event of technical failure, migration to another publishing platform, interruption of journal operations, or discontinuation of the journal or publisher.
