Archiving and Preservation Policy

JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGICAL SCIENCES

Archiving and Preservation Policy

JETS is committed to preserving its published research and keeping the scholarly record accessible for the long term, regardless of changes to the journal's website, platform, publisher or publication status.

Research published in the Journal of Engineering and Technological Sciences (JETS) is intended to remain available not only today but for as long as researchers, engineers, students and the wider public need it.

Engineers and scientists continue to cite work published in the journal's predecessor titles dating back to the 1960s. JETS therefore treats preservation of its published record as an essential part of responsible scholarly publishing.

This policy explains how JETS and its publisher, Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), preserve journal content and maintain access to it, including in the event of changes to the journal's website or publication platform.

Implementation Note

This policy contains several operational details that require confirmation before final publication, including specific preservation services, library holdings, backup arrangements and access to some historical volumes. These details should be verified by the journal before this page is treated as the final policy.

01
Preservation Scope

What We Preserve

JETS preserves the complete published record of the journal, including:

Published Articles

The final published version of every article, in PDF.

Article Metadata

Titles, authors, affiliations, abstracts, keywords, references, funding information, licences and DOIs.

Supplementary Material

Supplementary material published with articles on the journal website.

Publication Notices

Correction, retraction, expression-of-concern and addendum notices, together with their links to the original articles.

Issue Information

Issue tables of contents, covers and front matter.

The preservation commitment covers articles published under the journal's current title since 2013 and, as far as they are available in digital form, articles published under its earlier titles.
02
Preservation Infrastructure

How Content Is Preserved

JETS uses several independent arrangements so that the loss of any one preservation mechanism does not put the journal's content at risk.

2.1

PKP Preservation Network

CONFIRMATION REQUIRED BEFORE PUBLICATION

JETS participates in the PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN), a free service run by the Public Knowledge Project for journals using Open Journal Systems.

Through PKP PN, copies of the journal's published content are stored in several research libraries around the world using LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) technology.

If the journal's website becomes permanently unavailable, the preserved content can be released and made openly available.

LOCKSS Publisher Manifest

URL: https://jets.itb.ac.id/index.php/jets/gateway/lockss

The participation and manifest URL should be verified before this statement is published as an official policy.
2.2

Other Preservation Services

Confirmation required: list any further preservation services, such as Portico, CLOCKSS or the Internet Archive, if applicable. If no additional service is used, this subsection should be removed.
2.3

National Legal Deposit

As a publication with a print ISSN, JETS deposits its printed issues with the National Library of Indonesia (Perpustakaan Nasional Republik Indonesia) in accordance with Law No. 13 of 2018 on the Deposit of Printed and Recorded Works.

Confirmation required: verify whether JETS also deposits printed issues with the West Java Provincial Library.
2.4

ITB Library

Confirmation required: verify whether printed volumes of JETS and predecessor titles are held in the ITB Central Library and whether digital copies are held in the ITB institutional repository.
2.5

Server Backups

The journal's website, database and files are hosted on servers managed by ITB.

Confirmation required: verify whether full backups are made daily and stored in a separate location from the main server.
03
Persistent Identification

Persistent Identifiers and Links

Every JETS article is registered with Crossref and receives a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) with the prefix 10.5614.

A DOI always points to the current location of an article. If the journal's website moves to a new address or platform, the journal updates its records with Crossref so that every DOI continues to lead readers to the correct article.

Citation Recommendation

Readers and authors should always cite and link to JETS articles using the DOI rather than the web address of the article page.

04
Journal Archives

Where the Archive Can Be Found

Because of changes in platform over the years, JETS content is currently available in several locations.

2013–2023 · Previous JETS Platform
https://journals.itb.ac.id/index.php/jets/issue/archive
2003–2012 · Earlier Titles

Proceedings ITB on Engineering Science and ITB Journal of Engineering Science.

https://journal.itb.ac.id
1961–2002 · Proceedings ITB
Confirmation required: state whether these volumes are available in digital form and where, or whether they are available in print at the ITB Library.
Long-term archive commitment

ITB is committed to keeping these archives online. If any archive is moved, its DOIs will be updated and, where possible, the old web addresses will redirect to the new location.

Confirmation required: verify whether the journal intends to bring all volumes together on the current platform over time.
05
Continuity

If the Journal Changes or Ceases Publication

If JETS changes its publisher, platform or title, or stops publishing, ITB will:

keep all published content freely available online under its original licence, either on ITB servers or through the preservation services described above;
ensure that all DOIs continue to resolve to the articles;
announce the change on the journal website and inform Crossref, the ISSN International Centre, the indexing services that cover the journal and, where relevant, the Directory of Open Access Journals;
where content cannot be kept online by ITB, request the release of preserved copies through PKP PN or other applicable preservation services.
Permanent Access

Articles published in JETS will not be withdrawn from public access as a result of any such change.

06
Open Archive

Access and Licensing of Archived Content

Archived articles remain open access and are available under the same Creative Commons licence under which they were originally published.

No access barrier

No fee or registration is required to access the archive.

Confirmation required

Articles published before the journal adopted a Creative Commons licence remain freely available to read. The journal should specify the terms under which those articles may be reused.

07
Author Preservation

Authors' Own Archiving

In addition to the journal's own arrangements, authors are free to deposit their articles in institutional, national and subject repositories. This further increases the number of places where the work is preserved and available to readers.

Repository Policy

The versions that may be deposited and the conditions that apply are described in the JETS Repository Policy.
