Submission of Manuscripts

Manuscripts should be submitted in English to the Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Sam Kacew, via e-mail: skacew@uottawa.ca. Manuscripts must be submitted in MS Word format and must be less than 5 MB in size. If necessary, figures and/or tables should be sent as separate files which do need exceed 5 MB. Figures can be submitted in MS Word or PowerPoint format, but the author may be asked to provide higher-quality images if the manuscript is accepted for publication. Each manuscript must be accompanied by a statement that it has not been published elsewhere and that it has not been submitted simultaneously for publication elsewhere. Authors are responsible for obtaining permission to reproduce copyrighted material from other sources and are required to sign an agreement for the transfer of copyright to the publisher. All accepted manuscripts, artwork, and photographs become the property of the publisher.

All parts of the manuscript should be typewritten, double-spaced, with margins of at least one inch on all sides. Number manuscript pages consecutively throughout the paper. A cover page should be included containing all authors' full names, addresses, phone and fax numbers, and email addresses.  Authors should also supply a shortened version of the title suitable for the running head, not exceeding 50 character spaces. Each article should be summarized in an abstract of not more than 250 words, which should be included on a separate page. Avoid abbreviations, diagrams, and reference to the text. Authors must also supply the names and email addresses of four potential referees.

Reviewers

A list of four potential reviewers, including full contact information, should be supplied.

Should be alphabetized by author and compiled in a separate section at the end of the manuscript. Cite in text by author and date. Please use The Chicago Manual of Style, 14th ed., for correct reference style. 

Tables and figures should not be embedded in the text, but should be included as separate files. A short descriptive title should appear above each table with a clear legend and any footnotes suitably identified below. All units must be included. Figures should be completely labeled, taking into account necessary size reduction.

Part of the publication cost is covered by a page charge of $43.50 per printed page. If these charges are paid, the author will receive 50 reprints of the article. The acceptance and publication of papers are not dependent on the payment of charges. To register, please access Rightslink at the time of page proof review. 

Proofs 

One set of proofs is sent to the author. Proofs should be carefully checked and returned promptly.

Reprints

Reprints of an individual article may be ordered from Taylor & Francis at the time of page proofs.

Each corresponding author of an article will receive a PDF file of the article via email. This file is for personal use only and may not be copied and disseminated in any form without prior written permission from Taylor & Francis Group, LLC
