In this policy
01 Purpose and actual arrangements
This page describes the preservation and continuity arrangements confirmed for Abrahamic Religions: Jurnal Studi Agama-Agama below. It distinguishes present services from future plans. A commitment to preserve content is not evidence that deposits have already succeeded. Readers should be able to identify the provider, content covered and any limitations without relying solely on a logo or installed plugin.
02 Operational backups
Backups support recovery of the journal’s application, files and database after accidental loss or technical failure. Their usefulness depends on appropriate access controls, separate storage and tested recovery procedures. The confirmed statement should describe the practical arrangements without exposing credentials, private paths or security-sensitive infrastructure. An ordinary backup is not the same as independent long-term preservation.
03 Long-term preservation and coverage
Where a preservation service is in operation, the journal identifies its name, evidence of participation and the years or issues covered. Participation may depend on eligibility, agreements and successful deposits. The service’s terms determine how preserved content is made available after a trigger event; this page must not promise recovery or public access beyond those arrangements.
04 Deposit checking and omissions
Journal staff should check deposit results and investigate missing files, incomplete issue coverage or failed transfers rather than treating plugin activation as completion. The published statement should acknowledge known gaps. Corrections or replacement files may require additional deposits according to the provider’s process; a successful old deposit does not prove that the latest version is preserved.
05 Continuity if publication stops
The confirmed plan should explain who is responsible for maintaining access or coordinating a transfer if the journal or publisher ceases operation. Include any relevant service trigger conditions and limits. Persistent identifiers and links should be maintained where feasible. A future plan must be labelled as such and must not be described as an already functioning preservation guarantee.
06 Author copies and enquiries
Authors should retain their research records and permitted manuscript copies in accordance with institutional and repository requirements. Personal copies supplement but do not replace the journal’s preservation arrangements. Questions about a missing issue or preserved version should include its identifier and publication year. The editorial office should explain the verified position and update this statement when arrangements change.
07 Journal-specific arrangements
Journal-specific arrangements have not yet been supplied. Contact the editorial office for verified information.
