Digital preservation policy

The Environmental Journal Water, Air, and Soil (EJWAS) is committed to ensuring the digital preservation of its contents. Below are the main measures adopted:

1. Use of the Open Journal System (OJS): EJWAS employs OJS to efficiently manage its publications and ensure the digital preservation of its content.

2. Assignment of Digital Object Identifier (DOI): Each article published in EJWAS receives a DOI, providing a persistent identifier managed by Crossref. This facilitates unique identification and citation of articles within the academic community.

3. PKP Preservation Network: EJWAS benefits from the free digital preservation services provided by the PKP Preservation Network. The journal's files are stored in LOCKSS, a system developed by the Stanford University Library, ensuring permanent and secure archiving.

4. Open Access Policy: EJWAS follows an open access policy, meaning that its content is freely available to all users without access or download charges. This policy promotes knowledge sharing and the dissemination of the journal's content.
