Archival and Preservation Policy

Our journal is committed to the long-term preservation of its scholarly content and ensures that all published material remains accessible and usable over time. We have implemented a comprehensive archival strategy that utilizes trusted third-party digital preservation services as well as local measures.

1. Digital Preservation Services

To safeguard our journal content, we participate in the following digital preservation initiatives:

  • PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN)
    Our journal is integrated with the PKP Preservation Network, which provides free preservation services for journals using the Open Journal Systems (OJS). PKP PN securely archives our published content in geographically distributed servers.

  • LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe)
    We support the LOCKSS initiative, which allows participating libraries to preserve our journal by regularly collecting and caching content. This decentralized and redundant storage ensures long-term availability.

  • CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS) (if applicable)
    Our content is also archived in the CLOCKSS system, which operates similarly to LOCKSS but with additional governance to trigger content release in the event of journal unavailability.

2. Self-Archiving and Local Backups

In addition to third-party preservation:

  • Our hosting system (OJS) is regularly backed up, with multiple redundant copies stored securely.

  • Authors are encouraged to deposit copies of their published work in institutional and subject repositories, in accordance with our open access and self-archiving policy.

 

Privacy Statement

Journal of Creative Perspectives adheres to strict privacy guidelines to protect the data of our readers, authors, and reviewers. Any personal information collected will be used solely for the purposes of journal operations and will not be shared with third parties without consent.

JCP is proud to contribute to the open exchange of knowledge and invites readers, authors, and reviewers to participate in shaping the future of creative scholarship.
