Data Archiving & Preservation Policy

Journal of Consultancy, Training & Services (JCTS) is fully committed to the preservation of scientific research in digital form. As a result, measures have been taken to ensure both the current accessibility of the digital content of the Journal and its long-term preservation. JCTS aims to become a member of Portico in the near future. Portico is one of the world's leading digital preservation services. Archival versions of the content are maintained and are not accessible to the general public via Portico, but can be accessed when necessary under specific conditions, such as the discontinuation of a collection or catastrophic failure of the website. A secure server, which is frequently backed up, is used for the storage of all digital Journal content. Should there be a problem, the backup will be restored within 24 hours. JCTS is also implementing the PKP Private LOCKSS Network (PLN) preservation feature. https://www.lockss.org/
