IndexedArchival and Preservation
JDRR is committed to the long-term preservation and accessibility of published research. All articles are archived through multiple mechanisms to ensure permanent availability regardless of future changes to the journal's operational status. Our archival strategy includes participation in international digital preservation initiatives and partnerships with leading repository systems.
Published content is submitted to appropriate subject repositories where eligible, including PubMed Central for research meeting NIH public access requirements. Authors are encouraged to deposit accepted manuscripts in their institutional repositories, and JDRR's open-access license permits such archiving without embargo periods. We maintain redundant copies of all published content across geographically distributed servers to protect against data loss.
Discoverability Features
Digital Object Identifiers: Every article published in JDRR receives a unique DOI registered with CrossRef, providing a permanent, citable link that remains functional even if URLs change. DOIs enable seamless integration with reference managers, citation tracking systems, and linked data infrastructure.
Structured Metadata: We employ rich metadata schemas including Dublin Core and JATS XML to enhance machine readability and enable sophisticated search functionality. Article metadata is distributed to indexing services in real-time upon publication.
ORCID Integration: JDRR supports ORCID author identification, enabling accurate attribution of published work to researcher profiles. Authors are encouraged to link their ORCID iDs during submission to ensure proper credit and improve discoverability of their complete publication record.
Continuous Improvement: JDRR actively pursues expanded indexing coverage and regularly evaluates opportunities for inclusion in additional databases relevant to nucleic acid research and molecular biology. Authors with specific indexing requirements for their institutions or funding bodies are encouraged to contact the editorial office for current status and anticipated developments.
Impact and Metrics
JDRR provides article-level metrics to help authors and readers assess the reach and engagement of individual publications. Available metrics include download counts, citation tracking through multiple sources, and altmetric indicators capturing mentions in social media, news outlets, policy documents, and other non-traditional venues. These metrics are displayed on article pages and updated regularly to provide current indicators of research impact.
