Archiving & Self-Archiving Policy

Tajikistan Journal of Sciences & Technology (TJST)
The Tajikistan Journal of Science and Technology is committed to the long-term preservation and permanent accessibility of its scholarly content to ensure enduring availability for the global academic community and the public.

Digital Preservation & Permanent Repositories

To fulfill its commitment to digital preservation, the journal actively archives its full-text publications in trusted international repositories supporting open access and bit-level digital preservation standards. All content is deposited in:

Zenodo

An open digital repository operated by CERN. Zenodo provides long-term preservation of research outputs with persistent Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs), ensuring bit-level preservation, version control, and permanent public accessibility.

OpenAIRE

A European open science infrastructure supporting repository certification and open access compliance. Content indexed in OpenAIRE guarantees long-term discoverability, usability, and alignment with funder policies worldwide.

This dual archiving approach guarantees that all published scholarly articles remain permanently citable, accessible, and protected against loss regardless of future publisher or platform changes.

Self-Archiving Policy

The Tajikistan Journal of Science and Technology supports the principle of open access and encourages authors to deposit permitted versions of their work into institutional, funder, or subject repositories.

Allowed Manuscript Versions

1. Preprint Version (Submitted Manuscript)

Authors may deposit the version of the manuscript prior to peer review at any time, including on preprint servers or personal/institutional websites.

2. Accepted Manuscript (Post-Peer Review, Pre-Publication) 12-Month Embargo

Authors may archive the accepted peer-reviewed manuscript after an embargo period of 12 months from the date of publication. This version excludes the publisher’s final formatting and typesetting.

3. Published Version (Version of Record)

Authors may share the final published Version of Record strictly on the official journal platform or publisher channels, unless explicitly permitted otherwise by the journal.

Conditions & Compliance

  • Citation Requirements: Archiving must include a complete bibliographic citation of the published article, including DOI, journal name, volume, issue, and page numbers.
  • Official Link: A clear statement acknowledging publication in the Tajikistan Journal of Science and Technology with a direct link to the official published version must be displayed.
  • Copyright Integrity: Authors must ensure self-archiving activities do not violate copyright agreements or licensing terms.
  • Permitted Repositories: Manuscripts may be deposited in institutional repositories, subject archives, personal websites, or funder-mandated archives such as OpenAIRE or Zenodo.
