JSDTL is a journal, as we allow self-archiving of accepted and published papers through open access policy before and after the publication of a paper in the journal. Authors retain the copyright of their scholarly work and can archive pre-print and post-print or publisher's version/PDF to personal or institutional repositories or libraries anytime without requiring permission from the journal or publisher.

Authors of published articles in JSDTL are entitled to deposit their accepted manuscript or the version of record (published papers) in institutional and/or centrally organized repositories and can make this publicly available immediately upon acceptance and publication, provided that the journal and the SciView.Net are attributed as the original place of publication, and that correct citation details are given.

Upon acceptance of the paper by the journal, the authors acknowledge while making their article publicly available that the article has been accepted for publication as follows:

Authors can also make their published article publicly available immediately after publication without requiring any permission to different repositories, libraries or personal websites provided that they also deposit the URL of their published article, in addition to the PDF version, by correctly citing the journal name and the SciView.Net as publisher along with other citation details.

Digital Archiving and Preservation

In order to digitally preserve all published scholarly content, including that of JSDTL and SciView.Net submits, the journals' content to Zenodo for digital archiving for long-term digital preservation and supports the preservation of published journal content in the PKP Preservation Network. Furthermore, SciView.Net commits to submit the metadata of JSDTL and all other journals to PKP Preservation Network and other institutional repositories. This is to ensure that the published scholarly content by SciView.Net remains available to the community despite discontinuing any journal or any accidental loss of journal data in its archival records. The SciView.Net has further made sure that the metadata of all its open-access journals is compliant with well-known repository services, and their digital crawlers may regularly collect it for record and preservation.

The journal is archived at:

ZENODO - a research data repository for the preservation and making available research, educational and informational content. Access to Zenodo's content is open to all.

DOAJ is a community-curated online directory that indexes and provides access to high-quality, open-access, peer-reviewed journals.

Shepra Romeo is an online resource that aggregates and analyses publisher open access policies from around the world and provides summaries of publisher copyright and open access archiving policies on a journal-by-journal basis.

LOCKSS - The Program at Stanford University Libraries provides open-source technologies and services for high-confidence, resilient, secure digital preservation.
