Archiving

1. Archiving and digital preservation

This journal uses the LOCKSS system (https://www.lockss.org/) to create an archiving system distributed among collaborating libraries, allowing them to create permanent journal archives for preservation and restoration purposes. The LOOKSS editorial manifesto page is as follows: https://institucional.us.es/irocamm/lockss

In addition to the usual multiple and versioned backup procedures, the journal's content is replicated in the University of Seville's institutional repository (US Research Depot - IDUS). The journal's homepage in the aforementioned repository is: https://idus.us.es/handle/11441/76881

 

2. Interoperability protocols

The journal implements the OAI-PMH protocol (Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting, https://www.openarchives.org/pmh/), a mechanism for collecting metadata from repositories.
