Archiving Policy

The AlmaDL Journals service is committed to implementing actions and strategies for long-term digital preservation of journal content published through its platform.

The journals adhere to PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN) in order to ensure long term preservation of issues and articles in their original Version of Record. The PKP PN is a distributed dark archive and it is part of the Keepers Registry.

Furthemore, the University of Bologna has an archival arrangement with the National Central Libraries of Florence and Rome within the national project Magazzini Digitali.

AlmaDL is committed to uploading individual published issue on the platform to Internet Archive, a nonprofit digital library that has provided a permanent digital space for archiving digital content since 1996.
