JPPMI | DIGITAL PRESERVATION
Long-term accessibility, integrity, and responsible preservation of the scholarly record.
Jurnal Pengabdian dan Pengembangan Masyarakat Indonesia (JPPMI) is committed to maintaining the long-term accessibility, integrity, discoverability, and recoverability of its published scholarly content and associated bibliographic metadata.
Digital preservation is supported through journal-platform maintenance, scheduled backups, separate backup storage, persistent identifiers, metadata management, responsible preservation of the published version of record, and permitted repository deposit.
The journal distinguishes between measures implemented through its own publishing infrastructure and participation in external preservation services. Any claim of third-party preservation is made only when the relevant service is active and verifiable.
The journal's preservation arrangements cover the published scholarly record and the information needed to identify, retrieve, and interpret articles.
JPPMI uses a combination of publishing infrastructure and administrative measures to support the continuity of its scholarly content.
| Preservation Measure | Purpose |
|---|---|
| OJS Platform | Maintains the journal website, published articles, issue archives, and article metadata. |
| Scheduled Backups | Supports recovery of the journal database, publication files, public files, and necessary configuration information. |
| Separate Backup Storage | Reduces the risk of simultaneous loss of production systems and backup copies. |
| DOI Registration | Supports persistent article identification and reliable linking to publication records. |
| Metadata Distribution | Improves bibliographic discovery and supports the availability of article information across scholarly services. |
| Repository Deposit | Supports additional access to permitted article versions through institutional or other appropriate repositories. |
These measures serve different purposes. DOI registration, search-engine indexing, repository sharing, and platform backups do not individually constitute a complete independent digital preservation network.
The publisher is responsible for maintaining arrangements for backup and recovery of the journal's digital infrastructure.
The backup scope should include the OJS database, uploaded publication files, public files, and essential system configuration required to restore the journal.
At least one backup copy should be maintained separately from the active hosting environment and protected through appropriate access controls.
Backup files should be checked periodically for integrity and recoverability. Recovery procedures should also be tested to assess whether essential journal information can be restored following a technical failure, accidental deletion, security incident, or other interruption.
Access to backup systems and restoration procedures is restricted to personnel authorized by the publisher.
Independent digital preservation networks can provide an additional layer of protection when journal content or its original hosting platform becomes unavailable.
Services such as LOCKSS, CLOCKSS, and the PKP Preservation Network may be considered as part of the journal's long-term preservation development.
Verification of Preservation Participation: JPPMI does not claim active participation in LOCKSS, CLOCKSS, the PKP Preservation Network, or another external preservation network unless enrollment and technical activation have been confirmed.
Any newly activated external preservation arrangement should be identified accurately in the journal's public policy, including the name of the service and the relevant scope of preservation where available.
Articles formally published by JPPMI are maintained as versions of record. Published content should not be silently or retrospectively altered in ways that compromise the scholarly record.
When substantive corrections, retractions, or expressions of concern are necessary, the journal follows its applicable post-publication integrity procedures.
Relevant notices should be:
The journal seeks to preserve the persistent identification and bibliographic record of affected articles while ensuring that readers can recognize their current publication status.
Persistent identifiers and accurate bibliographic metadata support the identification, citation, retrieval, and continued discovery of scholarly publications.
JPPMI maintains article metadata, including titles, author information, abstracts, publication dates, journal issue details, and DOI information where applicable.
When an article's publication status or location changes, relevant metadata and links should be updated as appropriate. DOI registration and metadata distribution complement, but do not replace, preservation of the full-text publication files.
JPPMI supports responsible deposit of permitted article versions in institutional, disciplinary, or other appropriate repositories to improve scholarly dissemination and provide additional points of access.
Repository deposit must comply with the copyright and license conditions associated with the relevant article, as well as any restrictions concerning third-party content, community information, or personal data.
Repository copies should include complete citation information and a DOI or persistent link to the published version of record whenever available.
If JPPMI ceases publication or undergoes a major change in hosting or institutional management, the publisher will seek reasonable arrangements to preserve access to previously published articles and their bibliographic metadata.
Depending on technical, legal, and organizational circumstances, arrangements may include:
Such arrangements are subject to applicable copyright, confidentiality, data protection, and technical requirements.
Published scholarly content is ordinarily retained as part of the permanent publication record.
Removal may be considered only in exceptional circumstances, including a binding legal requirement, serious privacy violation, unlawful content, or an immediate and substantial risk of harm.
Where legally and ethically permissible, the journal should retain a bibliographic landing page explaining that the content has been removed and identifying the reason in an appropriately limited manner.
JPPMI is committed to accurate and transparent communication of its archiving and digital preservation arrangements.
The publisher and journal management should review the effectiveness of backup procedures, the recoverability of publication data, and opportunities to improve long-term digital preservation.
This policy will be updated when significant changes occur in the journal's archiving infrastructure, external preservation participation, backup arrangements, or long-term accessibility provisions.
