Peer Review

The Journal follows a double-blind review approach to ensure only high quality manuscripts are published. The peer-review process will affect research articles and general contributions. Book reviews are not subjected to peer-review. Once manuscripts are submitted through the online system (online journal system), the Editor-in-Chief, in consultation with the Editorial Team, assesses them to determine their appropriateness and/or relevance for the Journal and its readers. The manuscripts that are found to be appropriate and/or relevant are allocated and submitted to at least two peer reviewers. Peer-reviewers are keenly drawn from both national and international research communities, spanning a variety of sub-fields that constitute the broad field of LIS and related fields. Manuscripts can be accepted for publication (with minor corrections); accepted for publication (with the recommendation for major revisions); rejected (with the possibility of resubmission for review upon addressing the recommended revisions); or rejected outright. The review process takes a maximum of four weeks upon the submission of the manuscript to reviewers.

The Journal items will be published collectively, as part of an issue with its own Table of Contents. The Journal publishes two issues per year in April and October
