Archiving Policy

For the "Shodh Sagar Journal of Inspiration and Psychology," the archiving policy could emphasize long-term preservation and access to the journal's content. This might include commitments to archiving in multiple digital repositories, ensuring redundancy and safety, providing open access to archived materials, and detailing procedures for accessing content in the event of journal discontinuation. The policy should also specify the formats and metadata standards used for archiving to facilitate interoperability and long-term usability.

CLOCKSS: CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS) operates on a worldwide scale to protect scholarly content from loss due to unforeseen circumstances. Its network of archive nodes, spread across many geographic and political zones, is intended to store and preserve content in a secure and dependable manner. CLOCKSS ensures that, in the event of a 'trigger event' such as the loss of content from the publisher, the saved works will remain accessible and usable for future generations.

LOCKSS: The LOCKSS (Lots of Copies, Keep Stuff Safe) system takes a decentralized and distributed approach to preservation. Participating libraries throughout the world make and keep local copies of digital content. This strategy protects against technological and organisational failures, ensuring the journal's content remains intact and accessible throughout time.

PKP Preservation Network (PN): As part of the Public Knowledge Project, the PKP PN offers an extra preservation framework, specifically for publications that use Open Journal Systems (OJS). This network helps to protect digital academic content by using diverse but complementary preservation strategies. PKP PN ensures that the journal's content, which is controlled via OJS, is saved and made available for long-term academic and research usage.
