Digital preservation policies

DOI
Entretextos journal, as a member of Crossref, has included DOI (Digital Object Identifier) identifiers to all its published articles, in order to maintain the transparency and traceability of its publications. This alphanumeric code identifies an article on the web and retrieves it even if it is located on a different server than the one where it was originally hosted; therefore, it guarantees identification and avoids localization problems due to URL changes or similar.

PKP Preservation Network
Through the OJS (Open Journal System), Entretextos has an archiving system that guarantees digital preservation. In this sense, the PKP Preservation Network provides free preservation services for any OJS journal that meets the basic criteria; therefore, articles published in Entretextos are archived in LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) and CLOCKSS (Controlled Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe), thus ensuring a permanent and secure archive.

LOCKSS
Open Journal Systems, which hosts Entretextos, is compatible with the LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) system; this preservation system guarantees the journal a permanent and secure archive. LOCKSS is an open source program developed by the Stanford University Library that allows libraries to preserve selected web journals by regularly searching registered journals to collect new published content and archive it. Each archive is continuously validated against records from other libraries, so any damaged or lost content can be restored using those records or the journal itself. In this way, articles are progressively archived, ensuring that stored digital information can remain and continue to be used in the future.
