Information For Librarians

Academic Research Library and Archiving

For Academic & Research Librarians

Partnering with university libraries, research repositories, and information specialists to expand global access to peer-reviewed educational research.

???? Electronic Journal Holdings & Cataloging

We strongly encourage academic and research librarians to include Advances in Educational Inclusion and Equity (AdvEIE) (adveie.com) within their institution’s electronic journal holdings and library catalog systems (e.g., Alma, Primo, WorldCat, Summon, and EBSCO Knowledge Base).

As a fully open-access, peer-reviewed journal, AdvEIE provides unrestricted access to high-impact scholarly articles on educational equity, inclusive pedagogy, special education, digital learning technologies, and educational policy reform. Listing AdvEIE ensures faculty, postgraduate scholars, and students have seamless access to credible, evidence-based research literature without paywall barriers.

????️ Long-Term Digital Archiving & Preservation

To guarantee permanent accessibility and perpetual preservation of scholarly output, AdvEIE utilizes the LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) and CLOCKSS (Controlled Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) digital archiving systems.

These open-source preservation frameworks allow participating university libraries to collect, preserve, and restore decentralized archives of published journal volumes, safeguarding academic records against data loss or URL corruption.

???? OJS Hosting & Faculty Publishing Infrastructure

It is also worth noting that AdvEIE is powered by Open Journal Systems (OJS), an open-source journal management and publishing software developed by the Public Knowledge Project (PKP).

OJS provides an ideal infrastructure for academic libraries seeking to host open-access journals for university faculty members, department scholars, and editorial boards. Libraries leveraging OJS can streamline editorial submission workflows, automated double-blind peer review, metadata harvesting via OAI-PMH, and Crossref DOI assignments for institutionally affiliated publications.

???? Metadata Harvesting & Interoperability:

AdvEIE supports standard OAI-PMH (Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting) endpoints, enabling automated metadata collection by institutional repositories, Google Scholar, DOAJ, and national digital archives.
