All our electronic content (websites, journals, manuscripts etc.) is stored by our publisher UBI journal publishers with their designated servers and a suitable back up is made for the safety of the content if any mishap such as hacking etc happens on three different servers. Content on one server is online and accessible to the readers. The copy of the same live content is kept as a backup on two other servers. In case of failure of one server, any one of the other servers can be made online and all websites and journals will be live within less than 24-36 hours.
With authors and readers support, we will continue to publish all our journals for a very long time. If due to some rare, unfortunate circumstances we are forced to stop publishing a journal, the manuscripts published in that journal will be perpetually kept online and accessible to the readers as possible.
The manuscript has specific DOI, in agreement with cross ref. So locating any manuscript with their DOI would exist if the journal ceases from its current web pages to any other new web pages.
Self-Archiving: If the journal stops publishing, the journal domain, the website and all the content will be kept in their original form for a period of 10 years. After 10 years the content will be moved to another archive created thereof — IJPBS Full Archive — where it will be kept online and publicly accessible with same respective DOI. This archive wouldbe created to preserve all the digital content (especially published manuscripts) perpetually.
