Digital Archiving and Preservation Policy

For the digital storage and archiving of issues of the journal "Problems of Postmodernity", we carry out specific activities and procedures that ensure our affiliation with national and international organizations for the preservation of our publishing activity. We aim to guarantee that the authors and users of the journal's publications can rely on both the current digital archives on the journal's website itself, and that they can use them in their digital archived formats in our national electronic catalog, in which the journal appears with all its issues, and in international archival databases. Our goal is to ensure continuous access to the publications for the longest possible term.

Our policy for digital archiving and preservation of journals includes the following measures:

Ensured access to national and international digital repositories and libraries:

  • Nationally

In addition to the journal website, all issues of the journals are also archived through annual deposit in the electronic catalog of the Cyril and Methodius National Library in Sofia, Bulgaria. All issues are in a digitized PDF archive since 2011, when the journal was launched, and can be borrowed for use. The journal is reflected in the electronic catalog of the National Library of Bulgaria under the number COBISS-ID: 70849032 and can be borrowed electronically from https://plus.cobiss.net/cobiss/bg/bg/bib/70849032#isbd

  • Internationally

Digital access to our publications is also provided through our affiliation with the Central and Eastern European Online Library - a leading international repository offering a highly specialized and comprehensive collection of full-text indexed documents in the field of humanities and social sciences for Central, Eastern, and Southeastern Europe (CEEOL). Copies of the articles are available to the international scientific community through our corresponding number in the system - https://www.ceeol.com/search/journal-detail?id=1977

All issues of the journals are referenced and indexed in several global databases for referencing and indexing, which store and provide access to specific articles. (ERIH PLUS - The European Reference Index for the Humanities and the Social Sciences; ROAD - Directory of open access scholarly resources; MIAR - Information Matrix for the Analysis of Journals; DOAJ - Directory of Open Access Journals; BASE; CrossRef)

Self-archiving

The journal allows its authors to deposit their published post-print (accepted version) version/PDF in various institutional non-commercial repositories, as well as to publish it on their personal website, including social networking sites, such as ResearchGate, Academia.edu, etc.) at any time after publication in the journal, in accordance with the Creative Commons Attribution – NonCommercial – NoDerrivatives 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/).

Upon cessation of publication activity

Our journal is affiliated with the PKP Preservation Network. PKP has developed the PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN) for digital preservation of OJS journals. We intend and hope to be able to continue publishing our journal for a very long time to come. If, due to some adverse circumstances, we are forced to stop publishing it, the manuscripts published in it will be stored online and will be accessible to the reader from the archives of the PKP storage network.
