Archiving & Preservation Policy

International Journal on Management Education and Emerging Technology (IJMEET) is dedicated to ensuring the long-term accessibility and preservation of its published content. The journal recognizes the importance of making academic research continuously available for future scholars and adopts the following strategies:

• Digital Preservation: All published articles are digitally preserved through multiple mechanisms:
  • LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe): Enables decentralized, distributed archiving among libraries.
  • CLOCKSS: Ensures long-term access to content in case of journal discontinuation or publisher failure.
  • PKP Preservation Network (PN): Utilized through our Open Journal System (OJS) to maintain permanent archiving.
• Institutional Repositories: Authors are encouraged to deposit the final published version of their articles in institutional or subject-specific repositories, with full citation and metadata.
• Self-Archiving Policy: IJMEET supports open access and allows authors to:
  • Archive both pre-print and post-print versions of their manuscripts.
  • Host the publisher’s PDF on personal or institutional websites with appropriate attribution to IJMEET.
• Metadata and Indexing: All article metadata is correctly managed and indexed in global databases like Google Scholar, enhancing visibility and discoverability.
• Redundancy and Backup: Regular backups of all journal content (articles, metadata, user data) are maintained in secure, geographically separate locations to ensure data safety.
• In the Event of Discontinuation: If IJMEET ceases publication, all published content will remain freely accessible and permanently archived via CLOCKSS and LOCKSS systems.
