Norba. Revista de Historia - NRH has the purpose of preserving digitally in the long term all the documents it houses. To do this, it develops an action plan that includes basic measures to ensure the digital durability of the scientific material:
- Backups
- Documentation storage on servers and external storage units
- Conversion of formats to safer ones
- Periodic checks of file integrity to prevent corruption
- Monitoring of the technological environment to anticipate possible migrations of obsolete formats or software
- Digital preservation metadata
- Use of DOI in its new materials
For the purposes of digital preservation, the deposit of documents with easily readable formats (such as PDF) is encouraged. In the event that it was not possible to maintain the usability of all existing formats, the journal undertakes to return the files to their authors. The digital preservation policy will be reviewed annually by the NRH journal.
II. Open Access Policy
This journal provides immediate open access to its content, based on the principle that offering the public free access to research helps to further global knowledge exchange.
III. Quality policies
1. Scientific means of knowledge transfer
NRH has a Committee of National and International Reviewers of recognized prestige, an International Scientific Committee, experts in the disciplines present in Spanish universities and research centres. The Scientific Committee advises and evaluates the publication, endorsing it scientifically and projecting it internationally. The Editorial Board issues reports, propose themes and evaluates manuscripts. The Scientific Advisory Board submits the manuscripts estimated in the publication for blind evaluation
NRH is a means of publishing various Research Projects, Research Centers and Groups and Universities, not only to publish articles but monographic sections. In this New Stage, we begin with the work of the Research Group of UNED GI115: "Hermanéutica y argumentación jurídica".
NRH offers detailed information to its authors and collaborators on the manuscript review process and sets criteria, procedures, revision plan and maximum times strictly: a) Preliminary phase of manuscript estimation/dismissal; b) Evaluation phase of manuscripts with rejection/acceptance thereof; c) Edition of the texts in preprint (digital) and printed in Spanish and English. Post abstracts in the language in which the article is written and in English
NRH Accepts manuscripts in various languages for evaluation, articles in Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian and English have now been published.
2. Quality of the editorial process
NRH maintains its edition of numbers with a rigorous periodicity from its birth. An annual volume is published on a regular basis. It maintains, in turn, a strict coherence in its editorial line and in the subject of the publication. From the volume of 2019, the magazine is offered on paper and in OJS (e-print).
All works published in NRH are subject to prior evaluations by experts from the Advisory Board and the Editorial Board, as well as Reviewers, independent researchers of prestige in the area.
The collaborations reviewed in NRH are subject, as a minimum requirement, to the blind evaluation system, which guarantees anonymity in the revision of the manuscripts. In case of discrepancy between the evaluators, new revisions are carried out that determine the feasibility of the possible edition of the collaborations.
NRH motivates the editorial decision that includes the reasons for the prior estimation, subsequent revision, with acceptance or rejection of the manuscripts, with summaries of the opinions issued by external experts.
NRH has in its organization chart an Editorial Board, Advisory-Scientific Council and has a list of Evaluators. It also has a director and the assistance of the staff of the Publications Service of the University of Extremadura, as well as the production, edition and distribution management of the Sindéresis Publishing House with offices in Madrid and Porto. This ensures the institutional and commercial network.
The Advisory-Scientific Board and the list of Reviewers are made up of professionals and researchers of recognized prestige, without institutional links, neither with the journal nor with the publishing house, marking the evaluation and audit of the journal.
3. Scientific content quality
