Instructions to Authors
Author Guidelines Literacy is a refereed journal for those interested in the study and development of literacy and language. We welcome the following kinds of contributions:
- reports of recent research in the field of language and literacy
- informed and analytical accounts of innovative practice
- critiques of recent policy developments and examination of their impact
- Discussions and debates about current issues
In order to widen the forum for debate, researchers are also invited to submit shorter reports of Research in Progress.
Submission of manuscripts
Submission of a manuscript will be on the understanding that is an original contribution that has not been published previously, and is not currently under consideration by another journal.
Manuscripts should be submitted online at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/literacy. Full instructions and support are available on the site and a user ID and password can be obtained on the first visit. Support can be contacted by phone (+1 434 817 2040 ext. 167) Monday-Friday, or at http://mchelp.manuscriptcentral.com/gethelpnow/index.html.
A manuscript will be accepted only on the understanding that it is an original contribution which has not been published previously and is not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Articles should be between 3000 and 5000 words, and contributions to Research in Progress between 2000 and 2500 words. Articles should be submitted, preferably electronically, complete with abstracts of around 200 words, and some six key words that can be used to index the paper. The author's name should not appear on the article.
As the journal has a wide readership, authors should write in an accessible style. Technical language and reference to local organisations should be used as required, but should always be clearly explained. Titles should both attract the reader and reflect the content.
Articles will be reviewed anonymously by two independent referees. Their comments will be forwarded to the author. The Editor reserves the right to make changes to the manuscripts where necessary to bring them into conformity with the stylistic and bibliographic conventions of the journal.
Illustrative material: Any tables or figures should be supplied electronically. Illustrative material accompanying an article should be of high quality (eg original photographs, children's work etc. rather than photocopies). Each piece should be attached on a separate sheet and its approximate position marked in the text. These should be numbered and placed in a separate file from the body of the article. Electronic figures should be supplied as either TIFF or EPS format files (Halftones at 300 dpi and line art at 600 dpi). We recommend these formats as they result in the best quality in the final version of your paper. Most packages will allow you to export to these formats.
For further details please visit http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/bauthor/illustration.asp. The approximate place of tables and figures in the body of the paper should be clearly indicated.
References: If an author is cited in the text, a date should follow in brackets, and the full details be given under ’References’ at the end of the text. Multiple entries by an author or set of authors in the same year should be postscripted a, b, c, etc. after the year of publication. An exact page reference should be given in the text for any verbatim quotation. Titles of journals should not be abbreviated. Please follow this style:
