Archiving and Self-Archiving

Journal Archiving

The journal ensures long-term preservation and accessibility of published materials through the following mechanisms:
  • PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN): The journal utilizes the LOCKSS system to create a distributed archiving system among participating libraries. This allows for the creation of permanent journal archives for preservation and restoration purposes.
  • National Repositories: Electronic copies are deposited in the V.I. Vernadsky National Library of Ukraine.
  • Permanent Identification: The journal utilizes Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) to ensure permanent links to all articles.

Self-Archiving (Policy for Authors)

Authors are permitted and encouraged to post their work online (e.g., in institutional repositories or on personal websites) under the following terms:
  • Pre-print: Authors may post their pre-prints at any time, stating that the work has been submitted to this journal.
  • Post-print (Accepted Manuscript): Authors may post the peer-reviewed and accepted version of their work.
  • Version of Record (Final PDF): Authors can freely distribute the final published PDF immediately upon its publication on the journal’s website.
  • Condition: When self-archiving, authors must provide a full bibliographic citation and an active DOI link to the original publication on the journal’s website.
