Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, as the official publisher of its academic journals, is committed to ensuring the permanent and secure preservation of all scholarly content published across its journals.

To achieve this goal, all university journals are registered and preserved in Portico, one of the most reputable and trusted international systems for the long-term archiving and preservation of digital scholarly content, supported by major academic institutions such as ITHAKA and JSTOR. This membership guarantees that, in the event of any technical issues, website restructuring, hosting interruption, or other unforeseen circumstances, continuous and stable access to the journals’ scholarly content will be maintained.

In addition, the original versions of all published articles are stored on Ferdowsi University of Mashhad’s journal servers, and, if necessary, printed copies of the articles can be provided since each journal possesses a Print ISSN.

This policy reflects Ferdowsi University of Mashhad’s commitment to the principles of Open Access, scientific sustainability, and the preservation of scholarly heritage.
