Archiving Policy

Universitas Negeri Semarang, as the publisher of the Indonesian Journal of Criminal Law Studies (IJCLS), supports the open access journal model and permits the self-archiving of accepted and published manuscripts. Authors retain the copyright to their scholarly work and may archive the preprint, accepted manuscript (postprint), or publisher's version/PDF in personal or institutional repositories and libraries without requiring permission from the journal or publisher.

Authors of articles published in IJCLS may deposit their accepted manuscripts or the version of record (published article) in institutional and/or centrally organized repositories. These materials may be made publicly available immediately upon acceptance or publication, as applicable, provided that IJCLS and its publisher, Universitas Negeri Semarang, are acknowledged as the original place of publication and the correct citation details are supplied.

Upon acceptance of a manuscript, authors who make the accepted article publicly available should include the following statement:

• Include the URL of the article as published on the IJCLS website.
• Cite the journal name and Universitas Negeri Semarang as publisher.
• Provide the correct bibliographic citation details.
