Archiving Policy

The Journal of Advanced Electrical and Electronic Engineering (JAEEE) is committed to ensuring the long-term preservation, accessibility, security, and integrity of published scholarly research. The journal recognizes that maintaining a reliable and accessible scholarly record is essential for the advancement of scientific knowledge, technological innovation, and future research in electrical and electronic engineering.

JAEEE supports recognized digital archiving and preservation practices and provides dedicated LOCKSS and CLOCKSS archiving gateways through its Open Journal Systems (OJS) publishing platform.

LOCKSS and CLOCKSS Archiving

JAEEE provides the following official archiving gateways:

LOCKSS Gateway:

https://jaeee.org/index.php/JAEEE/gateway/lockss

CLOCKSS Gateway:

https://jaeee.org/index.php/JAEEE/gateway/clockss

The LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) system supports distributed digital preservation by enabling participating libraries to collect and preserve authorized scholarly content.

The CLOCKSS (Controlled Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) initiative provides a community-governed preservation infrastructure designed to support the long-term availability of scholarly publications.

JAEEE's OJS archiving gateways provide access to published issue information, journal metadata, and relevant archival resources.

The journal's LOCKSS gateway explicitly grants permission to the LOCKSS system to collect, preserve, and serve eligible archival content.

Similarly, the CLOCKSS gateway grants permission to the CLOCKSS system to ingest, preserve, and serve eligible archival content.

These permissions support the journal's compatibility with recognized preservation systems. Actual preservation within a participating network depends on the relevant network's harvesting and archiving arrangements.

Purpose and Objectives

The purpose of this policy is to establish a framework for the preservation, accessibility, and long-term availability of scholarly articles published in JAEEE.

The principal objectives are to:

Preserve published research for future generations of researchers and engineers.
Maintain the integrity and accessibility of the scholarly record.
Support the preservation of research articles, technical findings, and associated bibliographic information.
Reduce the risk of permanent content loss resulting from technological failure or other disruptions.
Facilitate scholarly discovery, citation, and responsible reuse of published research.
Encourage compatibility with recognized digital preservation standards and systems.

Preservation Formats

JAEEE supports the preservation of scholarly content in widely accessible digital formats.

Published articles are primarily made available in PDF format. Where technically feasible, the journal may also support preservation-oriented formats, including PDF/A and structured XML.

The use of appropriate digital formats contributes to long-term readability, document integrity, interoperability, and compatibility with evolving technologies.

The journal recognizes the importance of maintaining accessible article files and associated metadata as part of its preservation practices.

Article Metadata and Persistent Identification

JAEEE maintains bibliographic metadata to support the accurate identification, discovery, citation, and long-term preservation of published articles.

Relevant metadata includes, where applicable:

Article title.
Author names and institutional affiliations.
Abstract and keywords.
Journal title and ISSN.
Volume and issue information.
Publication date.
Digital Object Identifier (DOI).
Copyright and licensing information.
Manuscript submission and acceptance dates.

The journal supports the use of persistent identifiers and accurate bibliographic records to strengthen the discoverability and reliability of published research.

Digital Preservation and Backup

JAEEE recognizes the importance of protecting its digital publishing infrastructure and scholarly content against accidental deletion, data corruption, technical failures, unauthorized alteration, and other potential disruptions.

The journal supports appropriate backup and recovery procedures for its publishing platform, published article files, and associated metadata.

Where available, institutional repositories, external preservation arrangements, and distributed archiving technologies may provide additional safeguards for the scholarly record.

JAEEE seeks to maintain the continuity and accessibility of published content through responsible digital resource management.

Author Self-Archiving and Repository Deposits

JAEEE supports author self-archiving and encourages researchers to preserve and disseminate their scholarly contributions through recognized academic platforms.

Authors may deposit and share their published articles through:

Institutional repositories.
Subject-specific research repositories.
Personal academic websites.
Academic networking platforms.
Other appropriate scholarly repositories.

Articles published under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0) may be shared, redistributed, and reused for commercial and non-commercial purposes, provided the license conditions are followed.

Authors should provide appropriate attribution, acknowledge the original publication, include a link to the license, and indicate any changes made.

Long-Term Accessibility and Content Availability

JAEEE is committed to maintaining continued public access to its published scholarly research through its official journal website and appropriate digital preservation arrangements.

The journal recognizes that effective long-term preservation requires accurate metadata, suitable storage infrastructure, ongoing technical maintenance, and reliable archival procedures.

The journal's LOCKSS and CLOCKSS gateways facilitate access to archival information and support compatibility with external preservation systems.

Where an external preservation service has formally archived journal content, continued access may also be supported according to that service's applicable preservation and access arrangements.

Transparency and Preservation Responsibilities

JAEEE aims to provide clear and accurate information about its digital archiving arrangements.

The journal distinguishes between the availability of an OJS archiving gateway, permission for archival harvesting, and confirmation of active preservation by an external network.

The journal does not represent gateway availability alone as evidence of formal membership in, or completed preservation by, a particular archiving organization.

This approach supports transparency and responsible scholarly publishing.

Policy Review and Updates

JAEEE may periodically review and update its Archiving and Digital Preservation Policy to reflect technological developments, changes in preservation services, and internationally recognized scholarly publishing practices.

Any significant changes to the journal's preservation arrangements may be communicated through its official website.

Commitment to Long-Term Scholarly Preservation

The Journal of Advanced Electrical and Electronic Engineering (JAEEE) is dedicated to preserving the integrity, accessibility, and continuity of scholarly research in electrical engineering, electronic engineering, and related scientific disciplines.

Through its OJS archiving gateways, bibliographic metadata practices, author self-archiving permissions, and commitment to responsible digital preservation, JAEEE seeks to support the long-term availability of its published scholarly contributions.
