Crossmark Policy, Post-Publication Discussions, and Corrections

Crossmark is a multi-publisher initiative from Crossref to provide a standard way for readers to locate the current version of a piece of content. By applying the Crossmark logo, the Iraqi Journal of Veterinary Medicine, published by College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Baghdad, is committing to maintaining the content it publishes and to alerting readers to changes if and when they occur. Clicking on the Crossmark logo will tell you the current status of a document and may also give you additional publication record information about the document. All articles published in the Iraqi Journal of Veterinary Medicine receive a DOI and are permanently published. This applies regardless of the outcome of the peer review that follows after publication.

All content, including articles that have not (yet) passed peer review, is permanently archived in the Iraqi Journal of Veterinary Medicine journal OJS platform. All versions of all articles that have passed peer review will be archived in Iraqi Journal of Veterinary Medicine journal archive page.

The Iraqi Journal of Veterinary Medicine encourages constructive criticism of the published papers and to be evaluated under the scientific debate by the scientific community. This post-publication evaluation is focused to make sure that the quality of published papers comes across standards and the conclusions reached are defensible. The post-publication evaluation could be through letters to the editor or an external moderated site. Authors, after consulting with the journal editor, may or may not respond to the criticisms of the scientific community, this will be an editorial decision. Authors and readers must notify the editor of the Iraqi J.Vet.Med by sending an email to the journal general email for any corrigendum or erratum in published papers, in particular, those that could seriously affect the interpretation of data or information presented in an article. If an error (minor or major) is recognized and needs a necessary change to make on published papers either in print or online version, editor of the Iraqi J.Vet.Med will follow the COPE guidelines of  Post-publication discussions and corrections and Retraction guidelines to ensure the integrity of the scholarly record
