Archiving Policy

Comprehensive Oncology is committed to the long-term preservation and accessibility of its published content. The journal supports author self-archiving by allowing the final published versions of articles to be freely deposited in institutional repositories, personal websites, or other digital platforms without any embargo period. Additionally, the journal is registered with major archiving services such as the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and Portico, ensuring that all published articles are securely stored and accessible through these reputable third-party digital repositories. This helps maintain the availability of the research in case of journal discontinuation or website issues.

To further safeguard the long-term availability of its content, Comprehensive Oncology participates in the CLOCKSS and LOCKSS systems. These systems provide libraries with permanent copies of the journal’s content, ensuring its preservation and accessibility despite potential disruptions. All articles will remain accessible through the journal’s website and these archiving systems, supporting ongoing scientific research and clinical practice by ensuring continuous access to valuable research contributions.
