Digital preservation

All books published by Editorial Mar Caribe (EMC) are hosted in the institutional repository of the entity, sponsored by depositaries supported by OSF PREPRINTS and Knowledge Commons. The publication of texts in the open repositories segment or preprints as they are known in the field of open science, has been a reality since July 2022. Academics are invited to submit their research essays through our platform Caribe Pre-Print X, as this favours the preservation of the work before and after peer review. EMC Joins Open Appointments Initiative I4OC, collaboration between publishers, academics, researchers and universities, to promote the unrestricted availability of information.

All books have a DOI Bibliographic Identifier in collaboration with Center for Open Science (COS), Humanities Commons, Crossref and ARK that do not return 404 “Page not found” errors, guaranteeing long-term access to the scientific record of the works. EMC has a long-term digital preservation plan with ARAMEO.NET for published files, in the event that the entity stops publishing, the object link associated with persistent identifiers cannot be located, or content management systems (CMS) are not available online. However, if readers want to download the books from the digital cloud, they can access the Independent digital repository.

ARAMEO.NET offers libraries, indexers, databases and the scientific community open and lasting access to each book that is continuously validated in caches. If the link to the content is found to be corrupted, undetectable, or relocated, caches or repositories are used to restore it. ARAMEO.NET stores and distributes content from Editorial Mar Caribe through the website: https://www.arameo.net/editorial-mar-caribe
