Archiving & Digital Preservation Policy

International Journal of Interdisciplinary Research (IJIR) is committed to ensuring the long-term preservation and permanent accessibility of all published scholarly content. All published articles are preserved through multiple protection mechanisms to ensure continued access in the event of technical failure, platform disruption, or journal operational changes. The journal operates on an Open Journal Systems (OJS) infrastructure and adheres to international digital preservation standards.

Core Preservation Infrastructure

Our archiving system includes permanent storage on the journal’s primary hosting server, routine external backup storage, independent PDF preservation of all published articles, DOI metadata preservation through Crossref, permanent article-level URLs, and a continuous accessibility commitment by Oxbridge Publishing UK Ltd.

International Preservation Systems

In addition, the journal ensures long-term digital preservation through compliance with internationally recognized archiving and preservation systems, including:

  • PKP Preservation Network – preserved through (registered) / active
  • Internet Archive – registered / active
  • Zenodo – registered / active
  • LOCKSS/CLOCKSS – preserved through (registered) / active
  • OpenAIRE – registered / active
  • Dimensions.ai – registered / active

These systems provide distributed and redundant preservation layers, ensuring that journal content remains accessible and secure over time.

Institutional Backup Infrastructure

Furthermore, as an additional internal safeguard, all journal data and published content are backed up through a dedicated NAS infrastructure based on QNAP systems, providing independent institutional-level redundancy.

Long-Term Accessibility Commitment

In the event that the journal ceases publication, all previously published content will remain publicly accessible through archived records and preserved digital repositories. The journal is committed to maintaining the long-term integrity, discoverability, and accessibility of the scholarly record in full alignment with international open access and preservation standards.
