Instructions for Authors:

The views expressed in the International Journal of Heritage Studies are those of the authors, and do not necessarily coincide with those of the editor or the editorial advisory board.

Other submissions. The editor wishes to encourage articles which are of a more speculative nature, and especially those from practitioners in the field, often precluded from producing detailed research articles. Such articles should be clearly different from refereed research articles in tone of language. They do not normally contain an abstract nor many endnotes.

Referees. International Journal of Heritage Studies is a refereed journal. Strict anonymity is accorded both authors and referees. There are normally two referees, chosen for expertise within the subject area, and they are asked also to comment on comprehensibility and the significance of the article to disciplines, professions and countries other than the author's own.

Illustrations. Illustrations are welcome. In particular, discussions of particular heritage sites should normally include illustrations to enable readers to visualise the place. Please supply clear copies of artwork (preferably the original), in a finished format suitable for reproduction. Illustrations will not normally be redrawn by the publisher. Hard copies should be slides or prints. As only black and white is published, colour pictures are usefully passed through a photocopier to check for tonal values. Electronic versions of illustrations may be sent on a CD, preferably either TIFF (tagged image file format) or EPS (encapsulated postscript) formats. The approximate position of tables and illustrations should be indicated in the paper. All illustrations, photographs, diagrams, maps etc. (but not tables) should follow the same numerical sequence and be shown as Figure 1, Figure 2 etc. Authors should indicate which pictures are absolutely essential, and give a priority list for the remainder.

Captions. All illustrations should be accompanied by a caption, which should include the figure numbers, and an acknowledgement to the holder of the copyright. It is the author's responsibility to ensure that proper permissions are obtained.

Abstract. An abstract is required and should not exceed 150 words in length and should concentrate on the significant findings and/or arguments. Apart from its value to abstracting services, it should make a case for the article to be read by people from different disciplines.

Keywords. Provision of up to six key words is much appreciated by indexing and abstracting services.

Endnotes. Please use no more than 50 endnotes; neighbouring references should be bunched into a single endnote. Endnotes are to enlighten the reader, not to demonstrate the erudition of the author. Explanatory endnotes are welcome.
The use of abbreviations such as ‘ibid' and ‘op.cit' is encouraged.
