• Continuous monitoring of the technological environment to anticipate migrations due to obsolescence of formats or software.
• Integration of metadata designed for digital preservation.
• Assignment of persistent identifiers using the Digital Object Identifier (DOI) system.

b) External Preservation Measures:

Cuadernos Unimetanos deposits its metadata in national and international repositories, such as Dialnet, to ensure digital preservation and long-term accessibility.

c) Interoperability Protocol:

The use of Open Journal Systems (OJS) as its editorial management software ensures compatibility with the OAI-PMH (Open Archive Initiative-Protocol for Metadata Harvesting) interoperability protocol, facilitating metadata harvesting by other platforms and systems.
