New optional services for authors

Libertas Academica now offers useful optional services for authors. They're intended to help you prepare your manuscript for peer review or respond to peer reviewers' recommendations.

These are available to all authors. You don't even need to have submitted--or be intending to submit--your paper to one of our journals.

Pre-peer review copy editing:

This is done by proficient native English language speaking technical editors.

Pre-peer review reference formatting:

Also done by technical editors who are familiar with all common reference formatting standards.

Post-peer review revised manuscript preparation:

Too busy to prepare a revised version of your manuscript in response to the reviewers’ recommendations, or not sufficiently confident of your English?

This innovative service is provided by our business partner, who is a highly experienced former academic with a network of fellow academics working in every area Libertas Academica publishes journals in.

Your manuscript and the peer reviewers’ report will be sent to our business partner and a resubmission-ready package of files will be returned for your review prior to resubmission. Our staff will liase with you directly if access to any research source material is required.

Post-peer review copy editing and reference formatting:

These services are also available after peer review. Supply our technical editors with your peer review report to ensure they address the reviewers' points.

Bound reprints:

Distributing printed copies of an article is a great way to bring it to the attention of your colleagues at your institution or during meetings and conferences. We can supply spine-bound, high resolution black and white or colour copies of your article in sharp digital reprography.

Other pages can also be added to the back or front of your article, such as your CV or biosketch, and covers and various delivery options are also available.
