ARCHIVE POLICY

Al-Abshor: Jurnal Pendidikan Agama Islam (Journal of Islamic Religious Education) implements the LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) system as an effort to ensure the sustainability and preservation of its scientific publications. This system is designed to create a distributed archiving mechanism, allowing participating libraries to permanently store copies of journals. This system ensures that journals are not stored on a single publisher server but are replicated across multiple locations, ensuring greater security against the risk of data loss due to technical failures, server outages, or other external factors.

The use of LOCKSS also enables participating libraries to build a permanent digital archive, accessible at any time in the event of damage or loss of the primary archive. This ensures that the journal's existence remains preserved over time, despite technological challenges or changes in digital platforms. This system also ensures that the authors' scientific works remain accessible to readers, researchers, and academics in the future. Furthermore, the implementation of LOCKSS in the management of Al-Abshor reflects the journal's commitment to maintaining academic integrity and its responsibility to preserve knowledge. A secure, permanent archive not only benefits the publisher but also supports open access and the continuity of knowledge for future generations. With this system, Al-Abshor further strengthens its position as a professional, trusted journal focused on the sustainability of scientific publications in the field of Islamic Religious Education.

Furthermore, Al-Abshor: Jurnal Pendidikan Agama Islam (Jurnal of Islamic Religious Education) also takes strategic steps to ensure the accessibility and sustainability of publication data by submitting all its content to various official indexing institutions and data centers. The journal is integrated with the National Library of Indonesia, which serves as the national reference and repository for scientific works. Thus, every published article is not only stored on the journal's server but also documented in an officially recognized national database. Furthermore, Al-Abshor is registered with Onesearch, an integrated search portal that makes it easier for users to find various information sources from libraries, educational institutions, and research institutions throughout Indonesia. The presence of articles in Onesearch makes published scientific works more easily found by readers from various groups.

Furthermore, this journal also submits its content to Garuda (Garba Referral Digital), a scientific journal indexing system managed by the Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education. With this integration, scientific works published by Al-Abshor can have a wider reach and be recognized in the national system that collects academic publications from various universities and research institutions in Indonesia. Not only stopping there, Al-Abshor also collaborates with other journal indexing institutions, both at the national and international levels, to ensure that every published article is accessible to a wide audience, easy to find, and has a significant contribution to the development of science, especially in the field of Islamic Religious Education. This step demonstrates Al-Abshor: Jurnal Pendidikan Agama Islam's commitment to prioritizing open access and data security, so that the resulting scientific publications are not only useful now, but also remain available, documented, and accessible to future generations of academics.
