About the journal
Service industries generate over two-thirds of GNP and employment in developed countries, and their importance is growing in developing countries. We must understand how they have developed, are developing and how we can improve the management of services. Services industries include retailing and distribution; financial services, including banking and insurance; hotels and tourism; leisure, recreation and entertainment; professional and business services, including accountancy, marketing and law.
The Service Industries Journal, an international journal of service management, exists to improve our knowledge of service industries, service businesses and the effective management of services. This multidisciplinary journal was the first of its kind and has established a first class international reputation for the quality of its articles.
Peer Review Policy: All articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and double-blind refereeing by three anonymous referees. No articles are commissioned for publication. Only those articles judged by the editors and referees to be of the very best quality and reporting research of the highest international importance will be published.
Instructions to Authors
Submission: The Service Industries Journal is a refereed journal. Articles submitted to the journal should be original contributions and should not be under consideration for any other publication at the same time. If an article is under consideration by another publication, authors should clearly indicate this at the time of submission. Contributors are entitled to an e-print of their article, or, on request, 50 free offprints (co-authors share), and a copy of the issue in which their article appears. Reviewers receive one copy of the issue.
Copyright It is a condition of publication that authors assign copyright or license the publication rights in their articles, including abstracts, to Taylor & Francis. This enables us to ensure full copyright protection and to disseminate the article, and of course the Journal, to the widest possible readership in print and electronic formats as appropriate. Authors may, of course, use the article elsewhere after publication without prior permission from Taylor & Francis, provided that acknowledgement is given to the Journal as original source of publication, and that Taylor & Francis is notified so that our records show that its use is properly authorised. Authors retain a number of other rights under the Taylor & Francis rights policies documents. These policies are referred to at http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/authorrights.pdf for full details. Authors are themselves responsible for obtaining permission to reproduce copyright material from other sources.
Manuscript Articles submitted for consideration should be sent by electronic file with covering message, and full contact details (full address, telephone and fax numbers and email address) to any of the editors, that is:
Gary Akehurst (SIJ@akehurstonline.co.uk), Ronald Goldsmith (rgoldsm@cob.fsu.edu) or Barry Howcroft (j.b.howcroft@lboro.ac.uk)
Please note that it is not necessary to send a hard copy of your paper.
Authors are asked to submit their articles and presented according to the following instructions, as editors will not undertake retyping of manuscripts prior to publication.
Manuscripts must be typewritten on A4 paper, on one side only, double-spaced and with ample margins. Pages (including those containing only figures and tables) should be numbered consecutively.
There is no standard length for articles but 5,000-6,000 words (including notes and references) is a useful target. Authors should inform the editor of the exact length of the article at the time of submission.
The article title should not exceed ten words in length. The author's name should appear on the first page, in capitals and centred underneath the title. The author's affiliation with address, telephone and fax numbers and especially e-mail address, should appear in a footline on the first page. Acknowledgements, if any, should appear at the end of the article before the endnotes. The article should begin with an indented and italicised summary of less than 100 words, which should describe the main arguments and conclusions of the article. Following the summary up to ten key words should be noted (to aid electronic search engines in the future, should the paper be published).
As no author corrections, updating or additions are allowed at proof stage, authors must make a final check of their article for content, style, proper names, quotations and references. Check especially consistency of: Capitalisation, use of italics, hyphenation (minimal use of these is preferable), and spelling (e.g. of place names). Check for missing or duplicated numbers indicating notes.
Tables and Figures Tables and figures should be kept to a minimum (no more than four per article) and contain only essential data. All diagrams, maps, charts and graphs should be referred to as figures and consecutively numbered. Each table and figure must be given an Arabic numeral, followed by a heading, and be referred to in the text. They must be clearly presented on separate pages for photographic reproduction. Any diagrams and maps should be copied to a separate disk in TIFF or JPG format in individual files. Please do not apply frames or tints to tables. If these items cannot be prepared electronically, they should be presented on good quality white paper.
Technical Matter Where possible avoid the use of symbols and Greek letters. Complex mathematical equations or symbols are likewise to be avoided.
Journal Style AUTHORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT THEIR MANUSCRIPTS CONFORM TO THE JOURNAL STYLE. Particular attention is drawn to the following points.
Spelling: British spellings should be used throughout, and where there is an alternative -s- rather than -zendings (e.g. organise rather than organize).
Subheadings: Subheadings and sub-subheadings should be unambiguously marked. Main subheadings should be in capital letters, ranged left above the section, and sub-subheadings should have capital letters only for major words, and be italicised and ranged left above the section. Third-level subheadings should be italicised and run on as part of the paragraph (with a space above) and typed with a capital letter only for the first word.
House style: quotations should be in single quotation marks, double only within single. Quotations of several lines should be indented without quotation marks. Foreign words should be italicised unless they are in fairly common usage. Percentages should be written as per cent in the text, % in the list of Notes. Dates: 10 December 1982, Nineteenth century not 19th century, 1960s not 1960's.
Notes and references: Simple references without accompanying comments: to be inserted in square brackets at the appropriate place in the text, stating author's surname, publication date of work referred to and, where appropriate, relevant page numbers. e.g. [Livesey, 1979: 23-4]. If reference is made in the article to more than one work in the same year by the author, a lower case letter should be used to distinguish them: [Sparks, 1982a: 24-56].
References with comments: to appear as Notes, indicated consecutively through the article by raised numerals corresponding to the list of Notes placed at the end of the manuscript. Notes should be kept to a minimum. Bibliographical references within the notes should follow the system described above.
A REFERENCE LIST should appear after the list of Notes. It should contain all the works referred to listed alphabetically by author's surname (or name of sponsoring body where there is no identifiable author). Style should follow: Author's surname, forename and/or initials, date of publication, title of publication italicised, edition, place of publication and publisher. All of this information must be provided. Thus (note especially punctuation):
Dawson, J.A. and Kirby, D. (1979) Small Scale Retailing in the United Kingdom, 2nd edition, Farnborough: Saxon House.
Sparks, L. (1982a) Female and Part-time Employment within Superstore Retailing, European Journal of Marketing, 16(3), pp.278-94.
Sparks, L. (1982b) Employment in Hypermarkets and Superstores, in A.B. Smith (ed.), Employment Trends in England and Wales, Oxford: Basil Blackwell.
Book reviews should be preceded by full publication information in the following form:
The Business of Tourism, by J.C. Holloway. Plymouth: MacDonald & Evans, 1983. Pp.x + 246. 4.95 (paperback). ISBN 0-7121-0594-8.
The reviewer's name (in capital letters) and affiliation (italicised, ranged at the right) should appear at the end of the review.
While every care is taken, the Publishers cannot accept responsibility for loss of or damage to authors' manuscripts. Authors should keep at least one copy of their article.
