The publisher of TJDS (ISSN: 2717-7408 e-ISSN: 2757-9247) is pleased to announce its archive policy, which aims to support the dissemination of research results. The following conditions apply to authors of articles published in the journal:
● Authors may use the final published version of an article (publisher pdf) for self-archiving on their personal website and/or archiving in an institutional repository after publication.
● Authors may self-archive their articles in public and/or commercial subject-based archives without any embargo period. However, they must acknowledge the published source and provide a link to the journal homepage or articles’ DOI.
