Neurosurgical Advances is committed to ensuring the long-term preservation and accessibility of its published content. We employ a multi-faceted archiving policy to safeguard the availability of our articles for future generations of researchers and clinicians.

Digital Archiving

• Self-Archiving by Authors: Authors are encouraged to self-archive the final published version of their articles in institutional repositories, personal websites, or other recognized platforms. No embargo period is applied, and authors can freely distribute their work under the journal's open-access policy.

Third-Party Archiving

• DOAJ and Portico: Neurosurgical Advances is registered with leading archiving services such as the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and Portico, ensuring that all published articles are securely stored in trusted third-party digital repositories. These systems guarantee the preservation of the journal’s content in the event that the journal ceases to be published or the website is unavailable.

Library Archiving

• CLOCKSS and LOCKSS: We participate in the CLOCKSS and LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) systems, which allow libraries to retain permanent copies of the journal’s content. This ensures that articles are preserved even in cases of catastrophic failure or discontinuation.

Long-Term Availability

All content published in Neurosurgical Advances will be permanently available via the journal's website, and through the archiving systems mentioned above, ensuring continuous access to research and clinical advances in neurosurgery.
