Digital Preservation Policy

The Basic Sciences in Health Journal (CBS) is committed to ensuring the digital preservation of its contents. The main measures adopted are detailed below:

  1. Use of the Open Journal System (OJS): The CBS journal 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 the CBS journal receives a DOI, providing a persistent identifier managed by Crossref. This facilitates unique identification and citation of the articles in the academic community.

  3. PKP Preservation Network: The CBS journal 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: The CBS journal follows an open access policy, meaning its content is freely available to all users without charges for access or download. This policy promotes knowledge sharing and dissemination of the journal's content.

Authors have the freedom to make their articles available for self-archiving on various platforms according to their preferences, such as their personal website, institutional repository, thematic repository, or other appropriate means.
