Electronic Archiving Policy

The Journal of Islamic Economics and Business (JIEB) recognizes the importance of preserving published research and maintaining access to the scholarly record. This policy describes the journal's approach to electronic archiving, the availability of published articles, and the measures intended to support the continuity of access to its content.

1. Purpose and Scope

JIEB aims to maintain the accessibility and integrity of its published articles as part of the scholarly record. Electronic archiving supports the continued availability of journal content for researchers, authors, students, practitioners, and other readers.

This policy applies to articles and related publication records made available through the journal's online publishing platform. It is intended to support access to published content and provide a framework for responsible management of the journal's digital records.

2. Online Availability of Published Content

JIEB makes published articles available through its official journal website. The journal aims to maintain access to published issues, article files, and associated bibliographic information through its online publishing platform.

Published content is intended to remain available after the completion of an issue and after the publication of subsequent issues. The journal seeks to avoid unnecessary removal of published articles and to preserve a clear record of its publication history.

The availability of content through the journal website does not, by itself, guarantee uninterrupted access or establish that an independent long-term digital preservation service is in operation.

3. Digital Preservation and Backup

JIEB recognizes that long-term preservation requires appropriate technical and organizational measures to reduce the risk of data loss, corruption, or service disruption.

The journal's publisher and responsible platform administrators should take appropriate measures, consistent with available infrastructure and institutional procedures, to protect journal files and publication records. Such measures may include regular backups, access controls, and procedures for restoring content when technical problems occur.

The specific backup arrangements, frequency of backups, recovery procedures, and any independent preservation services depend on the systems and arrangements actually maintained by the publisher or its hosting provider. JIEB does not claim the use of a particular third-party preservation service unless that participation has been confirmed.

4. External Archiving and Repository Deposit

JIEB supports appropriate archiving and repository deposit practices that help preserve scholarly publications and improve their discoverability. Where permitted by the applicable license and relevant policies, published articles may be deposited in suitable institutional or subject repositories and shared through other appropriate platforms.

Authors and repository managers should preserve the article's bibliographic details and identify JIEB as the original publication source. The DOI or official article URL should be included where available, together with the applicable licensing information.

Any statement that JIEB participates in a specific external archiving or digital preservation service will be made only when the journal's participation has been verified.

5. Integrity of the Published Record

JIEB aims to maintain an accurate and transparent record of its published content. When an article requires a correction, retraction, or another formal editorial notice, the journal will handle the matter in accordance with its Retraction & Corrections Policy.

Where technically feasible, notices will be linked to the relevant article, and the publication record will clearly indicate the article's status. Published content should not be silently altered in a way that misleads readers about the version of record or the history of an editorial decision.

6. Access Disruptions and Recovery

Temporary interruptions may occur because of maintenance, hosting problems, technical failures, or other circumstances beyond the journal's immediate control. JIEB aims to address access problems through the responsible platform or institutional support arrangements available to the journal.

If an article or issue becomes temporarily unavailable, readers may contact the editorial office for assistance. The journal will make reasonable efforts, within its available technical and organizational capacity, to restore access or provide information about the affected publication.

7. Relationship to Other JIEB Policies

This policy should be read together with the following JIEB policies:

Together, these policies support continued access to published research, lawful reuse, and the preservation of an accurate scholarly record.
