About the journal
The Journal of Research in Reading provides an international forum for researchers into literacy. It is a refereed journal principally devoted to reports of original, empirical or theoretical studies in reading and related fields, and to informed reviews of relevant literature. The Journal welcomes papers researching issues related to the learning, teaching and use of literacy in a variety of contexts; papers on the history and development of literacy; papers about policy and strategy for literacy as related to children and adults. The Journal encourages papers within any research paradigm and from researchers in any relevant field such as anthropology, cultural studies, education, history of education, language and linguistics, philosophy, psychology and sociology.
The Journal also includes brief research notes, notices of conferences (including calls for papers), and reviews of books.
The Journal of Research in Reading is published for the United Kingdom Literacy Association.
An institutional subscription to Journal of Research in Reading includes 3 issues of Literacy (formerly Reading literacy and language) also from UKLA.

Electronic submission is preferred, ideally by e-mail to the Editor in IBM-compatible (PC) format, in Microsoft Word, RTF or as a text file. Submission in hard copy is also acceptable, in which case four copies should be sent. 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.
Manuscript specifications: The entire manuscript, including the abstract, the reference list, and any tables or figures and their captions, should be presented as A4 doubled spaced typescript. It should begin with a title page, giving the title of the paper, a suggested shorter title for running heads and a list of keywords. On the next page put the name(s) of the authors(s), institutional affiliation(s) and the correspondence address (and e-mail address) in the exact form required for publication. This page will be removed to allow for anonymous review. All pages must be numbered. Authors should also provide a 100-word biographical note.
Structure: Reports of research should be appropriately structured, for example:
a statement of the aims of the research, together with a brief review of significant relevant work;
a description of the conduct of the research and of the findings, in sufficient detail for readers to judge the validity of the research and, if appropriate, to allow for the study to be replicated;
discussion and/or conclusions which relate the research findings to the aims and context.
Footnotes should be avoided and acknowledgements or grant sources should be given at the end of the text.
For further detail on the structure of different types of research articles, there are examples of successful submissions at http://www.blackwellpublishing.com
Style: APA style should be adopted throughout the manuscript, but English spelling and grammar should be used. Spelling will be made consistent with that in the Oxford English Dictionary. Authors should use non-sexist language.
Keywords: Authors should suggest up to five keywords.
Abstract: This should be approximately 150 words in length and should summarise the scope and results of the study. It should be presented on a separate page. Structured abstracts are preferable where appropriate.
Tables and illustrations: Tables should be numbered consecutively, given adequate titles, and typed on new pages. Tables should supplement rather than duplicate text data. Illustrations should be on separate sheets and numbered sequentially. They should be suitable for photographic reproduction. Captions should be typed on a separate sheet.
Footnotes: These should be avoided and acknowledgements or grant sources should be given at the end of the text.
Permission to reproduce: If illustrations are borrowed from published sources written permission must be obtained from both publisher and author, and a credit line acknowledging the source must be added to the caption. Such permission must also be obtained and acknowledged for quotations totalling 250 to 300 words and for tables borrowed verbatim from published sources. Permission letters should accompany the manuscript, but an author who has been unable to obtain them should point this out.
References: If an author is cited in text, a date should follow in brackets, and the full details be given in a reference list in alphabetical order at the end of the text. An exact page reference should be given in the text for a verbatim quotation. Multiple entries by an author or a set of authors in the same year should be postscripted a, b, c (2000a, 2000b, 2000c), etc. The list of references should follow APA conventions (but with British punctuation for British publications) illustrated by the following examples.

Proofs: Psf proofs will be sent to the author for essential corrections. Changes should be kept to a minimum at this stage to keep down cost and time in correcting. When a paper has two or more authors, please indicate to whom the proofs should be sent.
NEW: Online production tracking is now available for your article through Blackwell's Author Services.
Author Services enables authors to track their article - once it has been accepted - through the production process to publication online and in print. Authors can check the status of their articles online and choose to receive automated e-mails at key stages of production. The author will receive an e-mail with a unique link that enables them to register and have their article automatically added to the system. Please ensure that a complete e-mail address is provided when submitting the manuscript. Visit www.blackwellpublishing.com/bauthor for more details on online production tracking and for a wealth of resources including FAQs and tips on article preparation, submission and more.
OnlineEarly: The Journal of Research in Reading is covered by Blackwell Publishing's OnlineEarly service. OnlineEarly articles are complete full-text articles published online in advance of their publication in a printed issue. Articles are therefore available as soon as they are ready, rather than having to wait for the next scheduled print issue. OnlineEarly articles are complete and final. They have been fully reviewed, revised and edited for publication, and the authors' final corrections have been incorporated. Because they are in final form, no changes can be made after online publication. The nature of OnlineEarly articles means that they do not yet have volume, issue or page numbers, so OnlineEarly articles cannot be cited in the traditional way. They are therefore given a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), which allows the article to be cited and tracked before it is allocated to an issue. After print publication, the DOI remains valid and can continue to be used to cite and access the article.
Copies: A pdf offprint will be emailed to all contributors and an additional six copies of the issue of the Journal in which a paper appears will be supplied to its first-named author free of charge.
Copyright: Authors submitting manuscript(s) do so on the understanding that if it is accepted for publication, copyright in the paper will be assigned to the UK Literacy Association. This assignment serves to promote the widest possible dissemination of the work, whilst protecting the author, UKLA, and the publisher against coypright infringement. Despite assigning copyright the author retains the right to re-use the material in future collections of his or her own work without fee. Acknowledgements of prior publication in the journal and of the copyright-holder are the only requirements in such cases. Moreover, the author may make photocopies of the work, or distribute it via electronic mail or fax, for his or her own personal teaching, research and scholarly purposes provided (a) that such copies are not resold and (b) that reference to the original source of publication and the name of the copyright holder are clearly stated on any copies made of the article. However, whilst both the UK Literacy Association and the Publishers are happy for an author to make the final version of his or her paper available on an institutional intranet, or other protected site which restricts access, an author would not normally be permitted to make the paper freely available on the internet. This is to protect the work from copyright infringement arising from unauthorised redistribution.
Papers cannot be published without a copyright assignment form. Authors will be required to assign copyright in their paper to the United Kingdom Literacy Association. Copyright assignment is a condition of publication and papers will not be passed to the publisher for production unless copyright has been assigned. To assist authors an appropriate copyright assignment form will be supplied by the editorial office. Alternatively, authors may like to download a copy of the form here http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/pdf/jrir_caf.pdf (Government employees need to complete the Author Warranty sections, although copyright in such cases does not need to be assigned.)
