Archive Policy

International Journal of Didactic Mathematics in Distance Education (IJDMDE) utilizes the LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) and CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS) system to establish a distributed archiving mechanism among participating libraries. This initiative allows these libraries to generate permanent archives of the journal for preservation and restoration purposes, ensuring the long-term availability of scholarly content.

Both the CLOCKSS Archive and the Global LOCKSS Network preserve all content with explicit permission from the publisher, which is obtained through written contracts or online permission statements. We engage closely with implementers of the LOCKSS network to facilitate the development of governance and legal terms that are specifically tailored to the content involved, the jurisdictions in which it operates, and the rights and access provisions pertinent to it.

By collaborating with the LOCKSS network implementers, we ensure that the governance and legal terms are appropriate and conducive to the preservation and accessibility of our content. This collaborative effort ensures that the archiving process adheres to the highest standards of integrity and reliability, safeguarding the scholarly record for future generations.
