Archiving Policy

Archiving Policy

JOHHS (Journal of Occupational Health, Hygiene and Safety) is committed to the long-term preservation and continued accessibility of its published content. To safeguard against the loss of scholarly content, this journal utilizes multiple digital preservation systems:

   

  1. LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) - This journal is preserved through the LOCKSS system, a distributed archiving network that allows participating libraries to create permanent, secure archives of the journal's content for purposes of preservation and restoration. Learn more at https://www.lockss.org/.
  2. CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS) - This journal also participates in CLOCKSS, a not-for-profit joint venture between the world's leading academic publishers and research libraries, which maintains a geographically and geopolitically distributed archive to ensure the content remains permanently available and open to all in the event the journal is no longer published. Learn more at https://clockss.org/.
  3. PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN) - This journal utilizes the PKP Preservation Network, a distributed digital archiving system among participating libraries, providing an additional layer of redundant preservation. Learn more at https://pkp.sfu.ca/pkp-pn/.
  4. Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) - Every published article is assigned a persistent DOI via Crossref, ensuring stable and citable access to content over the long term.

Through this combination of preservation systems, JOHHS ensures that all published articles remain permanently accessible to readers and researchers, even if the journal's website or publishing platform were to become unavailable in the future.
