Publication Process


Review process and Promptness of Publication

All e-Books submitted for publication are immediately subjected to editorial scrutiny, in consultation with members of the SciDoc Advisory Board and by internal independent reviewers. Every effort will be taken to peer review submitted ebooks rapidly. e-Books which are delayed by authors in revision for more than 30 days will have to send an acknowledgement regarding the additional time that would take to complete the revision of the e-Book. e-Books accepted for publication are typeset and proofs are dispatched to authors for any corrections prior to final publication.


Proof Corrections

Editors/Authors will receive page proofs of their accepted eBook/chapter before publication. To avoid delays in publication, proofs should be checked immediately for typographical errors and returned within 48 hours. Major changes are not acceptable at the proof stage. If unable to send corrections within 48 hours due to some reason, the author(s) must at least send an acknowledgement on receiving the galley proofs or the e-Book/chapter will be published exactly as received and the publishers will not be responsible for any error occurring in the published material in this regard.
