Digital Preservation Policy

Dirāsāt Hispānicas develops various processes in order to preserve permanent access to digital objects hosted on its own servers:

  • Dirāsāt Hispānicas uses the DOI (Digital Object Identifier) system for the durability of its publications on the web.
  • Dirāsāt Hispānicas is part of the Public Knowledge Project’s Private LOCKSS Network (PKP-PLN). PKP-PLN generates a decentralized archive system distributed among collaborating libraries in order to create permanent archives of the journal for preservation of the authentic original version of the content and its restoration if necessary.
  • Dirāsāt Hispānicas allows and recommends simultaneous publication of publications in self-archiving systems or institutional repositories when their origin is recognized.
