In many aspects of the guidelines, access and policies, GLOSSA Contact, sister journal of GLOSSA: General Linguistics (https://www.glossa-journal.org) and GLOSSA: Psycholinguistics (https://escholarship.org/uc/glossapsycholinguistics), follows the directions of our sister journals.

Anti-plagiarism Checking

A combination of pre-screening and open access is the best possible defence against plagiarism. All articles submitted will be screened for plagiarism automatically, comparing the submission to a large database of academic content, in order to alert editors to any possible issues.

Archiving

Using the archiving tools LOCKSS (=Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe), Glossa Contact will be working with the PKP Preservation Network to safely store all published material so that it can be restored should the primary storage experience a catastrophic event.
