Digital Preservation Policy

Economicus Journal of Business and Economics Insights (JBEI), through its Editorial Committee, has established digital preservation methods to ensure the intellectual content of electronic archive documents is maintained over long periods, preserving their integrity, authenticity, unalterability, originality, reliability, and accessibility for each officially published information resource.

Economicus JBEI establishes digital preservation as a responsibility and commitment of all personnel involved in its editorial management.

Information Backup

To guarantee the preservation of information, the Editorial Committee will carry out the task of ensuring the documents are completely stored in its own institutional infrastructure, with the aim of ensuring both the access and the long-term preservation of the content.

To back up the information stored in the journal infrastructure, the Editorial Committee will carry out a backup activity plan that covers the next aspects:

An integrated backup per semester from the journal to physical media should be stored in a different geographic location than the current servers (main or surveyed).

In addition to the assurance of an integration of a digital preservation model that includes:

• Use of the Open Journal Systems (OJS) infrastructure: OJS is employed to efficiently manage publications.
• Assignment of Digital Object Identifier (DOI): Each published article receives a DOI, managed through Crossref.
• PKP Preservation Network (PN): OJS enables activation of the PKP PN module to ensure the automatic deposit of articles and guarantee long-term preservation.
• LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe): This distributed preservation system, coordinated among collaborating libraries, allows the creation of permanent archives of the journal.
