Instructions for Authors

***Note to Authors: please make sure your contact address information is clearly visible on the outside of all packages you are sending to Editors.***

The Editor will be pleased to consider for publication original manuscripts which deal with any of the broad range of themes outlined. Papers should not have been published previously, or submitted elsewhere simultaneously. Papers presented at conferences may be considered if they are unlikely to be published in a conference proceedings volume.

Please send submissions to:

Editor: Graham Walton, Ph.D., Head of Planning & Resource, Loughborough University, Loughborough, j.g.walton@lboro.ac.uk

1) The title of the paper should be informative. The name, designation, affiliation, and postal address of each author should be given in full, including an e-mail address and a fax number, where either or both of these exist. The author(s) should only be identified on a separate author/title page, and it should not be possible to identify the author(s) within the body of the manuscript (for refereeing purposes). A contact author should be nominated, for editorial correspondence.

2) The language of publication is English. Papers should be written for an international audience, adopting a straightforward writing style, and avoiding over-long or complex sentence structures.

3) An abstract of no more than 200 words outlining the scope of the paper and its main results or conclusions should precede the main text. The text should be typed with double-spacing, and be no longer than 7,000 words (excluding references), with numbered pages.
 
4) The paper should be submitted to the editor as an e-mail attachment, a Word file. Where compression is necessary, a common format such as ZIP or STUFFIT should be used.

5) In addition to a full version of the paper showing text and graphics integrated, a separate copy of each graphic (figures, tables and illustrations) is required. These can also be submitted as e-mail attachments/ on disk and in a printed version. Each graphic file should be named with the first author's surname (abbreviated if necessary), the number of the figure, and an extension indicating the file format. For example: anderson.fig3.tiff, or spencer.fig6.jpeg. Only commonly used graphic formats should be used, and preferably TIFF.

7) Where necessary, authors should ensure that permission to reproduce material quoted in their papers has been obtained from the relevant copyright holders. (Forms for this purpose are available from the Editor if required; in all cases, permission should be obtained in writing, and copies sent to the Editor with the final version of the paper). The permission of any employer, supervisor or funding body should also be secured by the author if necessary, before submission of the paper.

8) No substantial changes in content can be made to the paper after acceptance; the author(s) should therefore ensure that the final version of their paper is definitive.
