Interoperability protocols

Interoperability Policy

JBAS adopts internationally recognized interoperability protocols and standards to enhance the visibility, dissemination, retrieval, and preservation of its published scientific content.

The journal uses the OAI-PMH protocol (Open Archives Initiative – Protocol for Metadata Harvesting), which enables automated harvesting of metadata by indexing services, repositories, digital libraries, and scientific information systems.

Article metadata are made available in a structured and standardized format, including information such as title, authorship, institutional affiliation, abstract, keywords, and publication data, facilitating interoperability with national and international databases.

JBAS is committed to maintaining its metadata updated, consistent, and accessible, following best practices in standardization and interoperability to ensure proper indexing, efficient information retrieval, and integration with preservation and dissemination systems.

Whenever applicable, the journal may adopt other interoperability standards and services compatible with OJS to improve integration with indexers, institutional repositories, and scientific communication platforms.
