Full-text articles and supplementary materials are securely stored across multiple trusted digital repositories to prevent loss, corruption, or unauthorized modification. Archiving platforms include:

  • Open Journal Systems (OJS) Archiving: Utilizes the OJS platform's native capabilities for content and metadata preservation.
  • Crossref DOI Registration and Metadata Deposits: Every article receives a DOI for persistent identification and reliable citation linking.
  • CLOCKSS and Portico: Trusted digital preservation services maintain content accessibility even in case of system or publisher failures.
  • National Repository – Neliti: Selected articles are archived in Indonesia’s Neliti repository to ensure regional preservation and visibility.
  • ResearchGate, Academia.edu, and Institutional Repositories: Authors are encouraged to deposit their accepted manuscripts to maximize dissemination.
  • Other Repositories: Decentralized storage via repositories like Zenodo ensures redundancy and long-term scholarly communication.

3. Accessibility and Open Archiving

AEI’s archive is fully Open Access, with free access to all content worldwide. Readers can browse, download, and cite articles without restrictions, supporting transparency and equitable access to knowledge.

The archive is optimized for discoverability via search engines, library catalogs, and indexing services to ensure maximum visibility and retrievability of scholarly content.

4. Continuity and Disaster Recovery
