Archiving is an extremely important element for open-access journals. To ensure content preservation, expand access to articles, and facilitate their usage, the journal deposits its content in the publicly accessible archives of the Vernadsky National Library of Ukraine (Kyiv, Ukraine) and the Electronic Scientific Repository of I. Horbachevsky Ternopil National Medical University of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine (Ternopil, Ukraine).
