Electronic Archiving

Jurnal Laboratorium Khatulistiwa (JLK) is committed to maintaining the availability and integrity of its published scholarly content through internal digital archiving and file management practices. These practices support the continuity of access to published articles and help safeguard the journal's scholarly record.

1. Internal Digital Archiving

JLK manages its published content through its editorial and technical management processes. Digital files of published articles and related publication documents are maintained internally by the journal in accordance with its applicable file management procedures.

Internal archiving is intended to support the retention, organisation, and retrieval of published content for administrative and editorial purposes. The journal's internal archiving practices do not constitute participation in an independent external digital preservation network.

2. File Management and Backup

The journal's authorised editorial or technical personnel are responsible for managing digital publication files and maintaining internal records of published issues and articles.

Where implemented, internal backup procedures are used to reduce the risk of data loss resulting from technical failures or accidental deletion. Access to archived files and administrative records is restricted to authorised personnel according to their assigned responsibilities.

The journal seeks to maintain accurate publication records and ensure that archived files can be retrieved when needed. The effectiveness of these arrangements depends on the implementation and regular maintenance of the journal's internal file management and backup procedures.

3. Access to Archived Content

Readers can access published articles and issues through the official Jurnal Laboratorium Khatulistiwa website and its Journal Archives page.

Internal archival copies are maintained primarily for administrative, editorial, and recovery purposes. Their availability does not guarantee uninterrupted public access if the journal's website or publishing platform becomes unavailable.

JLK acknowledges the importance of long-term digital preservation and may consider additional preservation arrangements to strengthen the continuity and accessibility of its published scholarly content.

Enquiries concerning the journal's internal archiving practices or access to published content may be directed to the editorial office through the journal's official Contact page.

Any significant changes to the journal's digital archiving and preservation arrangements will be reflected in this policy.
