JCRHAP employs comprehensive digital preservation strategies to ensure permanent access to published HIV research.
Article Archiving
All published articles are archived in multiple formats including PDF and HTML. We maintain redundant storage systems with geographic distribution ensuring disaster recovery capability and uninterrupted access to HIV/AIDS research content.
DOI Persistence
CrossRef DOI registration provides permanent identification for each article. DOIs remain functional indefinitely and redirect to current article locations even if URLs change, ensuring reliable citation linking for HIV research.
Metadata Preservation
Complete bibliographic metadata is distributed to indexing services and preserved in standard formats. This ensures discoverability through multiple channels and supports accurate citation tracking for HIV/AIDS researchers.
JCRHAP encourages authors to make research data underlying their publications available through appropriate repositories. Data sharing accelerates scientific progress by enabling verification, replication, and secondary analysis of HIV research findings.
- Genomic data should be deposited in GenBank or similar repositories
- Clinical trial data should be shared per applicable regulations
- Anonymized datasets may be included as supplementary materials
- Data availability statements are required in all research articles
