Author Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit manuscripts that fall within the focus of the journal. Read the Author Guidelines and Peer Review Process before making a submission.

If you have any questions you can contact the Managing Editor.

Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.

  • The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
  • The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines, and all DOIs for online references have been provided, when available.
  • The author declares the absence of any conflict of interest and warrants that the work does not infringe upon any copyright, proprietary, or personal right of any third party. If the work contains any material that is owned or controlled by a third party, the author certifies that he/she has obtained permission for its use and that the material is clearly acknowledged within the text.
  • All authors have given permission to be listed on the submitted paper. The corresponding author is authorized to speak on behalf of the authors.
  • The submission file is in MS Word or in OpenOffice/LibreOffice Writer format.
  • Two or three key words have been added, after the abstract.
  • Tables and figures must be embedded in the text. Figures should preferably also be added in separate files.
  • When submitting a paper to LIBER Quarterly that has been shared to a preprint server, we ask that you make it clear to the editor of the journal on submission that the work is already hosted on a preprint server.
