Persistent identifiers policy

Revista Nodo ensures the long-term accessibility and traceability of its publications through robust digital identification systems.

1. Digital Object Identifier (DOI)
• Coverage: All articles published from 2016 to present.
• Provider: Registered through Crossref via OJS (Open Journal Systems).
• Display:
–Full DOI URL is embedded in:
º Article web pages.
º PDF and XML files.
• Benefits:
–Permanent archiving and link stability.
–Enhanced discoverability in academic databases.
–Reliable citation tracking.

2. ORCID iD Requirement (Mandatory Since 2023)
• Purpose:
–Uniquely identifies authors to prevent name ambiguity.
–Tracks research contributions across platforms.
• Registration:
–Authors must obtain an ORCID iD (free) via orcid.org
–Must be linked during manuscript submission.
• Advantages:
–Automates affiliation and publication records.
–Supports open science transparency.

Implementation Guidelines
1. For Authors:
• DOI: Cite articles using the full URL (e.g., https://doi.org/10.XXXX/abc123).
• ORCID:
–Register and connect your ORCID iD to Revista Nodo’s submission system.
–Ensure your ORCID profile is updated with current affiliations.

2. For Readers:
• Use the DOI to:
–Access articles even if URLs change.
–Generate accurate citations.

Why This Matters?
• DOI: Safeguards against link rot and ensures long-term access.
• ORCID: Reduces misattributions and streamlines academic profiling.
• Alignment: Complies with FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable).

Compliance
• Manuscripts without ORCID iD will not proceed to peer review.
• DOI errors (e.g., broken links) should be reported to revista.nodo@uan.edu.co
