Best Practice

Archiving Policy

The editor ensures that published material is securely archived. The Ortacag Arastirmalari Dergisi sends all published articles it publishes on an open-access basis, without further intervention from the author(s), to archives, where they are made fully available. The Author or its funding body may deposit a copy of the Author’s Accepted Manuscript in archiving sites. The  Ortacag Arastirmalari Dergisi author licence allows reuse with attribution of the origin of the article (a full citation) for non-commercial use only. For commercial use, our permissions policy applies.

The Ortacag Arastirmacilari Dergisi is committed to keeping research articles open access, with reuse via CC-BY-NC Creative Commons licences, and to depositing the full-text content in the archive platforms.

 The Ortacag Arastirmacilari Dergisi uses the LOCKSS system to allow permanent archives to be created. Based on Stanford University Libraries, the LOCKSS Program provides award-winning, low-cost, open-source digital preservation tools to provide libraries and publishers with access to permanent and authoritative digital content. The LOCKSS Program is a library-led digital preservation system built on the principle of "securing large numbers of copies". The LOCKSS Program develops and supports libraries using open-source end-to-end digital preservation software.

Ortacag Arastirmalari Dergisi has chosen to deposit and open up citation data via the Initiative for Open Citations I4OC. See. I4OC list: Initiative for Open Citations: I4OC.

Authors can download the output of the article as a PDF document. Authors can send copies of the article to their colleagues without any embargo.

Unique Identifiers & Structured Data

Persistent Article Identifier: DOI
The Ortacag Arastirmalari Dergisi uses the digital object identifier (DOI). DOI is used to find the article no matter where it is located.

Crossmark Policy: CrossMark is a multi-publisher initiative to provide a standard way for readers to locate the authoritative version of an article or other published content. By applying the CrossMark logo, Ortacag Arastirmalar Dergisi is committing to maintaining the content it publishes and to alerting readers to changes if and when they occur.
Crossmark Policy: https://dergipark.org.tr/tr/journal/2725/page/create

Correction and Retraction Policies: Ortacag Arastirmalari Dergisi is committed to uphold the integrity of the literature and publishes Errata, Expressions of Concerns or Retraction Notices dependent on the situation and in accordance with the COPE Retraction Guidelines. In all cases, these notices are linked to the original article.

There are two categories of updates: minor and major changes. Minor changes include correcting formatting and spelling. There are no substantive changes you would need to alert the reader to, so the Crossmark status is current. If changes don’t affect the crediting or interpretation of the work, the Crossmark status remains as it is.
Major changes affect the Crossmark status of the work, as Crossmark is geared towards letting readers know about significant changes to the published literature. Substantial changes, such as the retraction of an article due to an error, or the addition or removal of an author, should be reflected in a work’s Crossmark status. It is good practice to publish a notice of correction or retraction (with its own DOI) and not put it behind access control. This allows readers to follow the link in the Crossmark button and find further details about the update. Download the Crossmark factsheet.
