Archiving and Preservation Policy
In Journal of Global Integrated Research (JGIR), we presume that the research must always be discoverable long after the time that it was first published. When an article is published, it cannot be lost in the frame or be hard to find because of the technological development, new platforms, or time. The archiving and preservation policy will guarantee that the scholarly record will be safe, stable, and will be workable in many years to come.
The way we Archive Published Information
Upon acceptance and publication of an article in JGIR, there are a number of measures to protect such content in the long term:
- Secure Hosting: To prevent any loss of data, the articles are kept at trustworthy servers and regularly backed up.
- Digital Archiving: Published work is stored in reliable digital storage to ensure that although there is a change in the systems of websites, the material still remains accessible.
- Long-term Availability: Articles that have been published will be accessible on the internet forever, and there will be no time restrictions or paywalls that will disrupt access.
- Downloadable Files: Readers are able to download files of articles so as to make personal reference, teaching or citing them.
Concisely, we not only publish articles but keep them alive so that they continue to reside within the current academic discourse.
Why Archiving Matters
It is necessary to preserve as research can be useful many years after it was printed. Other researchers, practitioners, and students might need to go back to previous work years in future. Effective archiving benefits in making sure:
- Credible Reference: The references are valid, traceable and can be found easily.
- Future Research Construction: Future research can be confident in constructing itself on the basis of the past research.
- Educational Application: Articles can be continued to be used as learning and teaching.
- History: The development of scientific and interdisciplinary knowledge is history and can be accessed.
Information treasures and intelligent insights might be misplaced or hidden without careful archiving, and that is contrary to the idea of open and collaborative research.
