Indexing and discovery
Indexing and Discovery
How the Journal of Death makes its articles available, preserves the published record and reports journal-level indexing. Each record is described by its role, and no service is presented as something it is not.
Article access
Open articles in three formats
Every JOD article is published open access on openaccesspub.org under CC BY 4.0, free to read and download without registration. Each article is available in HTML, PDF and XML, and carries its citation details, authors, abstract and license on the article page.
Open full-text access allows scholarly search services to find and link JOD articles. A service builds its records from published article metadata and follows its own collection schedule, so appearing in a service is not part of, or a condition of, the editorial process.
Article copies
Article deposits
PubMed Central deposits
Eligible NIH-funded manuscripts may be deposited individually in PubMed Central through the NIH Manuscript Submission System (NIHMS).
Individual manuscript deposit applies to the deposited article only. It does not establish journal-level indexing.
Author deposits
Authors retain copyright and may deposit any version of their article, including the published version, in institutional or subject repositories without embargo. See Copyright and License.
Selective indexing
Verified journal-level indexing
This section lists databases that have independently confirmed the journal's inclusion, with the date the status was last checked. Entries are added when a listing is confirmed.
Identifiers such as an ISSN, DOI registration and ORCID display, metadata harvesting, and discovery services are separate from selective journal-level indexing and are not presented as indexing.
Status last checked October 2026.
Long-term access
Preservation
JOD articles will be deposited in Portico, a not-for-profit digital-preservation archive run by ITHAKA (the organization behind JSTOR). Once deposited, articles enter Portico’s permanent archive, so the scholarly record stays available for the long term — even if a title one day ceases to publish.
