Open Access Archiving and Long-term Preservation Policy

ARCHIVING

The Editorial Board is committed to ensuring long-term access to its scholarly publications and takes all necessary technical measures to provide backup and open access to the journal’s content.

Storage Locations

Each issue is published in both print and electronic formats. The electronic version must be made available via open access on the journal's website and deposited in the Institutional Repository of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv (eKNUTSHIR).
The eKNUTSHIR repository is integrated with the National Repository of Academic Texts.

Electronic copies of all issues are also submitted for preservation to the "Scientific Periodicals of Ukraine" platform of the Vernadsky National Library of Ukraine.

Archiving Frequency

Journal content is archived immediately after the publication of each issue, ensuring continuous and timely preservation of scholarly works.

Licenses and Permissions

All archived content retains its original licensing terms. This ensures that readers and researchers can use the materials under the same conditions as when they were first published.

Policy Updates
The archiving policy is reviewed every two years to ensure alignment with the best practices in scholarly publishing and content preservation. Any updates or changes will be announced on the journal's official website.

SELF-ARCHIVING
