Publishing process

Choose the right journal

Find the right fit for your manuscript. Don’t forget – you should never submit your manuscript to more than one journal at a time.

  • Check the journal’s aims and scope to ensure it is a good match for your manuscript
  • Read the journal’s guide for authors

Prepare your paper

Carefully read the guide for authors for advice on:

  • Paper structure
  • The abstract
  • Keywords
  • Accepted file formats

Submit your paper

This is done via the online editorial management system.

  • Locate the link to your chosen journal’s editorial management system on the journal’s homepage
  • Log in or register 
  • Once you’ve completed the submission process, your manuscript will be sent for peer review
