Review Procedure
Authors will receive an acknowledgement by e-mail including a reference number shortly after receipt of the manuscript. All manuscripts within the general domain of the journal will be sent for at least two external reviews, using a double blind format, from members of our Editorial Board or their designated reviewers. In the majority of cases, authors will be notified within 45 days of the result of the review. If reviewers recommend changes, authors will receive a copy of the reviews and a timetable for submitting revisions. Papers and disks will not be returned to authors.
We do not require a submission or publication fee, but we require that at least one author from each paper have an EBSCOhost institutional subscription to JLAE; if not, we request that at least one author from each paper get a subscription. At this time, we are not sponsored, so the subscription helps promote the journal and offset the costs associated with running a print publication. JLAE subscriptions can be made through the Subscriptions/Reprints link in the navigation box of this website.
