IJSMF recognizes the importance of preserving the scholarly record and maintaining long-term access to published research.
The journal will maintain an electronic archive of published articles, issues, and associated publication information through its official website. Published articles may be preserved through appropriate digital archiving and preservation services as the journal's publishing infrastructure develops.
The journal intends to implement appropriate measures to protect published content against accidental loss, unauthorized alteration, or disruption of access. Authors may be permitted to retain and share versions of their work subject to the journal's applicable copyright and licensing conditions.
Details of external preservation or repository arrangements will be updated on this page as they are established.
