Digital archive

Journals that publish in BRIN Publishing  is committed to the permanent availability and preservation of scholarly research and to ensure accessibility by converting and upgrading digital file formats to comply with the newest technology standards. We work in partnership with organizations as well as maintaining our own digital archive.

Local Archive

The archive of digital content maintains a local state-of-the-art facility to store a complete, accurate digital version of paper published. The current format standards are .pdf; with most files being retained in both formats. Website archiving All of this electronic content (website, manuscripts, etc.) is stored on three different sources. Content on one server is online and accessible to the readers. The copy of the same content is kept as a backup on two other sources. In case of failure of one server, any one of the other sources can be made online and website expected to be accessible within 24-36 hours.

Systems Backup

All publication in BRIN are performed once a week in the form of incremental backups. All the journals are built in a cloud computing environment where the system is regularly backed up for applications, databases, and electronic documents.

Self-archiving

BRIN Publishing support self-archiving. The systems permit and encourages authors to make their research visible and accessible to the peers by uploading the final published version of their articles in personal or institutional repositories immediately after publication, while providing bibliographic details that credit, if applicable, its publication.

Indexing

All the journals' abstracting/indexing services store many essential information about the articles. Additionally, two of our journal’s Abstracting/Indexing services archive not only the metadata about the article, but the electronic versions of the articles, as well. Therefore, copies of the articles are available to the scientific community through their systems as an alternative to the journals own.

All published articles are assigned to Digital Object Identifier (DOI)- CrossRef. All the books deposits publications in multiple digital archives around the world to guarantee long-term digital preservation. All published articles are indexed in Dimensions and Google Scholar. All articles are permanently archived and available in PDF formats. The books make metadata available in compliance with Open Archives Initiative protocols, enabling automated 'harvesting' of our research articles for inclusion in any other digital archives. We support non-exclusive digital archiving of research articles by as many international archives as possible, to ensure the security and permanent accessibility of that research.

BRIN Publishing is a participant in the LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) initiative. LOCKSS will enable any library to maintain their own archive of content from Jurnal Sains & Teknologi Modifikasi Cuaca  and other publishers, with minimal technical effort and using cheaply available hardware.
