5. Digital Archiving and Preservation Policy
The International Journal of Technology, Innovation, and Education (IJTIE) ensures the long-term preservation and accessibility of all published articles. To achieve this, we utilize Zenodo, an open-access repository developed by CERN. All our articles are securely archived, assigned DOIs for citation, and made accessible to the scholarly community. This ensures that our content remains available and discoverable in perpetuity.
