<strong>Propose</strong> a <strong>new</strong> <strong>journal</strong> with<br />
<strong>Emerald</strong><br />
<strong>Emerald</strong> has a strong commitment to innovation and quality in publishing, and prides itself on being at the leading<br />
edge of scholarly research.<br />
We are actively seeking to enhance or extend our portfolio via <strong>journal</strong> launch (subject- and regionallyfocused<br />
titles or partnership <strong>journal</strong>s) and invite Proposing Editors to contact us with ideas for <strong>new</strong><br />
<strong>journal</strong>s.<br />
What are the key criteria for a successful<br />
<strong>new</strong> <strong>journal</strong> launch?<br />
• Once completed, the fi nal proposal is presented to<br />
the Board of Directors, who make the fi nal decision.<br />
• The Editor must be an enthusiastic deliverer and<br />
have an established network of contacts<br />
• Strong subject-matter that meets a particular need<br />
not currently addressed by existing publications.<br />
How will the <strong>new</strong> <strong>journal</strong> contribute to the body of<br />
knowledge? Will it infl uence regulatory change or<br />
industry practices? Is it a growing topic of interest or<br />
an unfulfi lled niche?<br />
• Clear differentiation from other <strong>journal</strong>s/products in<br />
the fi eld<br />
• A clearly defi ned target market that should be easily<br />
reachable<br />
We recommend at least 12 months between a <strong>new</strong><br />
launch <strong>journal</strong> being approved by the <strong>Emerald</strong> Board<br />
and the fi rst issue being published. This ensures<br />
maximum promotional opportunities and suffi cient time<br />
to attract papers.<br />
What are the benefits of being an Editor at<br />
<strong>Emerald</strong>?<br />
• Professional and close support from a dedicated<br />
Publishing team<br />
• Annual honorarium for editing the <strong>journal</strong> and<br />
annual conference allowance<br />
• Tangible benefi ts for the end-user<br />
• International contributions and target market<br />
• A clear indication of relevant conferences and other<br />
promotional opportunities<br />
• An available source of good quality content.<br />
What will happen to your proposal, once<br />
submitted?<br />
• The proposing Editor must complete a <strong>journal</strong><br />
proposal form found on our website at www.<br />
emeraldinsight.com/products/<strong>new</strong>/propose.htm<br />
• The proposal form is then evaluated by relevant<br />
<strong>Emerald</strong> staff and external experts in the given fi eld.<br />
Based on the feedback received, we work with the<br />
Proposing Editor to refi ne the proposal. This<br />
process can take up to three months<br />
• ScholarOne Manuscripts online submission and<br />
review system<br />
• A quality-assured in-house production service<br />
• Production of promotional literature and dedicated<br />
<strong>journal</strong> home page<br />
• Access (via <strong>Emerald</strong>) to the <strong>Emerald</strong> Literati<br />
database for promotional messages, consisting of<br />
more than 70,000 researchers and scholars<br />
worldwide<br />
• Support and practical help and advice on getting<br />
the <strong>journal</strong>s listed on abstracting & indexing<br />
services and rankings such as ISI<br />
• Journal published in hard copy and online<br />
• Inclusion of the <strong>new</strong> title in the <strong>Emerald</strong> full text<br />
database, EMPlus and relevant portfolio collection.<br />
