Digital Archiving

Jurnal Keperawatan Tropis Papua (JKTP) is committed to the long-term digital preservation of all published content. The journal participates in multiple digital archiving systems to ensure that articles remain permanently accessible to readers, researchers, and institutions—regardless of changes to the journal's online infrastructure, hosting environment, or publication status.

Digital preservation is a core obligation of responsible scholarly publishing. Content that is not preserved in a recognized archiving system is at risk of permanent loss. JKTP's archiving strategy is designed to protect the integrity and accessibility of the scholarly record for the long term.

1. PKP PRESERVATION NETWORK (PKP PN)

JKTP participates in the PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN), a free digital preservation service developed by the Public Knowledge Project (PKP) specifically for journals published using Open Journal Systems (OJS). The PKP PN is built on LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) technology and operates as a distributed, decentralized dark archive.

Under this system, published content is automatically deposited and replicated across multiple preservation nodes maintained by participating institutions worldwide. Preserved content is held in a dark archive—meaning it is not publicly accessible under normal circumstances—and is released only in response to a defined trigger, such as the journal ceasing publication or becoming permanently unavailable from its original source. At that point, preserved content is made openly accessible through PKP member institutions.

2. LOCKSS

JKTP supports the LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) program, an international initiative developed at Stanford University that enables libraries to collect, preserve, and provide access to scholarly content. LOCKSS operates through a network of participating libraries that each maintain independent copies of preserved journal content, ensuring redundancy and long-term accessibility.

The LOCKSS Publisher Manifest for JKTP is accessible to participating library networks and confirms the journal's content is available for preservation.

3. CLOCKSS

JKTP also supports CLOCKSS (Controlled Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe), a not-for-profit joint venture between the world's leading academic publishers and research libraries. CLOCKSS operates as a dark archive and provides a sustainable, distributed, and secure mechanism for the long-term preservation of web-based scholarly content.

Like LOCKSS, CLOCKSS releases preserved content only after a trigger event, at which point it becomes publicly accessible under a Creative Commons license. CLOCKSS is recognized by major indexing services, including DOAJ and Scopus, as a qualifying archiving solution.

4. GARUDA (GARBA RUJUKAN DIGITAL)

All articles published in JKTP are also indexed and preserved in Garuda (Garba Rujukan Digital), the national digital reference repository managed by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology of the Republic of Indonesia (Kemdikbudristek). Garuda serves as an additional layer of national-level preservation and discoverability for Indonesian scholarly journals.

5. OJS PLATFORM ARCHIVING

In addition to the external archiving systems described above, all published content is maintained on the journal's OJS platform hosted by Politeknik Kesehatan Kemenkes Jayapura. Regular server backups are performed to protect against data loss due to technical failure.
