Archiving Policy

Mujtahid: Journal of Islamic Legal Decision Sciences ensures long-term digital preservation and accessibility of all published content. The journal utilizes multiple archiving and preservation strategies to safeguard scholarly materials against data loss, corruption, or technological obsolescence.

The journal participates in the Public Knowledge Project’s Private LOCKSS Network (PKP PN), which preserves content through a distributed archiving system among participating libraries. This ensures that all published articles remain permanently accessible, even in the event of technical failure or discontinuation of the journal.

In addition, the journal supports open access and self-archiving. Authors are permitted and encouraged to deposit the submitted version, the accepted manuscript (Author Accepted Manuscript), and the final published version (Version of Record) of their articles in institutional repositories, personal websites, or other open access platforms, provided that proper citation and acknowledgment of Mujtahid: Journal of Islamic Legal Decision Sciences as the original source of publication are maintained.
