1. Introduction & Preservation Commitment

This policy sets out FAASE’s digital preservation practices, self-archiving allowances, and emergency trigger events to ensure the scholarly record remains available even under service disruptions. It aligns with OJS 3.3 best practices and community preservation networks.

2. Digital Preservation Services

PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN)

FAASE supports integration with the PKP Preservation Network, a dark archive for OJS that preserves a verified Version of Record and facilitates content recovery in case of recognised trigger events.

LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe)

LOCKSS principles are applied via distributed replication across library partners, periodic checksum verification, and automated repair against data degradation (bit rot).

CLOCKSS (optional/prospective)

FAASE may add CLOCKSS as an additional, community-governed preservation layer offering triggered open access when criteria are met. Any partnership activation will be reflected on this page.

3. Self-Archiving & Manuscript Versions

Authors may deposit their manuscripts in institutional or subject repositories, or on personal websites, provided the authoritative record is cited correctly (final citation and DOI).

Version Permitted Repositories When
Preprint (Submitted Version) Institutional repositories, subject repositories, personal websites Before peer review; update metadata as the manuscript status changes
Postprint (Accepted Manuscript) Institutional repositories, subject repositories, personal websites After acceptance; include the final citation and the DOI of the published version
Version of Record (Publisher’s PDF) Repositories/personal sites in line with the article license & publisher policy Immediately upon publication if the license permits; the DOI must be included

For any deposited version, authors must provide the final citation and DOI, together with the applicable license (e.g., CC BY 4.0 where used).

4. Metadata, DOI, & Interoperability

Article metadata (title, authors, affiliations, abstract, keywords, references, DOI, license) are preserved alongside the files. Metadata can be harvested through OJS interoperability protocols (e.g., OAI-PMH). DOIs remain active, including under recognised trigger events.

5. File Formats & Data Integrity

Primary preserved format: PDF/A. Research appendices may include CSV/XLSX (data), ZIP (code or supplementary materials), JPEG/PNG (images), and MP4 (short videos). Integrity is verified via checksums and multi-role storage (production server plus separate backups).

6. Trigger Events & Emergency Access

Recognised trigger events include permanent journal cessation, disasters leading to prolonged unavailability, extended technical failures, or publisher closure. When such events occur, the PKP PN and, if activated, CLOCKSS can provide access to a verified Version of Record.

7. Backup & Retention

FAASE performs scheduled on-site and off-site backups: daily incremental and weekly full backups, with a minimum retention period of 12 months, and periodic recovery tests.

8. Copyright & Licensing

Archived content follows each article’s license. Any re-publication via preservation networks must retain author attribution, journal information, and the license terms as stated on the Version of Record.
