Archiving Policy
Archiving Policy
"Ensuring long-term digital preservation and permanent accessibility of scholarly research for future generations."
Edu Global: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam recognizes the critical importance of preserving published research in perpetuity. We employ a robust digital archiving strategy to safeguard against data loss, ensuring that every published article remains discoverable, intact, and continuously accessible even in the event of technical failure or journal cessation.
Preservation Infrastructure
✦ LOCKSS & CLOCKSS Participation
The journal utilizes the LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) and CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS) systems to create a distributed archiving network among participating libraries. This enables permanent archival storage and immediate restoration capabilities for all published issues.
✦ National & Institutional Repositories
In compliance with statutory standards, all published content is deposited into National Repositories and official scholarly indexing networks. Authors are also strongly encouraged to self-archive their work in Institutional Repositories to maximize global dissemination and archival redundancy.
Data Integrity & Backup
Automated daily backups are performed across secure local and cloud servers to ensure complete content integrity, preventing any data loss from cyber threats or hardware failures.
Metadata Preservation
Crucial metadata—including DOIs (Crossref), ORCID iDs, and indexing tags—is synced with external registries to guarantee perpetual discoverability across academic databases.
Commitment to Open Access & Integrity
Immediate and free access to all research articles upon publication without paywalls.
Archival records include correction and retraction notices to maintain scholarly truth.
Continuous commitment to migrating content to future-proof digital formats.
