Archive Policy

To ensure the long-term preservation and accessibility of published content, Research and Practice of Educational Chemistry (RESPEC) supports digital archiving and preservation practices for all published articles.

RESPEC may utilize digital preservation systems such as LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) and CLOCKSS (Controlled LOCKSS) when available through the journal platform or participating preservation networks. These systems are designed to collect, preserve, and provide access to journal content through decentralized archiving mechanisms, ensuring that published materials remain accessible in the event of technical failure or journal discontinuation.

In addition, all published articles are maintained in the journal’s online archive and may be assigned persistent identifiers such as Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) to support long-term discoverability, citation, and accessibility. RESPEC is committed to preserving published scholarly content and maintaining access for readers, authors, and the academic community.
