  PROPOSAL  
  launch new journal  
 
Proposals to launch new journal or special issue should be submitted by the Guest Editors (at least 4 and at most 6 Guest Editors) and should include the following:
 
 
  • The journal for which the Special Issue is intended OR the Journal Name with the new Title (new journal should not conflict with the existing journals).
  • A suggested title for the Special Issue/New Journal.
  • Proposed Aims and Scope, giving an overview of the Journal/Special Issue's intended focus and a list of the topics to be covered.
  • A list of the Guest Editors including their names, emails, affiliations, and a short biography (one paragraph) of each of the Guest Editors.
  • A proposed timeline and schedule which includes.
    • Deadline for submission (2 months from the initial Call-for-Papers).
    • First round of review (1 month after submission deadline).
    • Tentative publication date (1 month after the first round of review).
 
  EDITING A “SUCCESSFUL” SPECIAL ISSUE/NEW JOURNAL ISSUE  
  SUCCESSFUL SPECIAL ISSUE/NEW JOURNAL ISSUE  
 
Once a proposal has been approved in principle by CSC Editorial Office, it is the responsibility of the Guest Editor(s) to deliver the soft copy of entire issue to CSC within the agreed time-scale. Guest Editors must organize a double-blind reviewing process for all papers submitted for inclusion in the special issue or for each issue of the newly established journal, so as to:
  • Identify those papers to be finally included in the special issue.
  • Strengthen these papers, so as to ensure the highest possible standards for the issue.
 
  SUBMISSION PROPOSAL (SPECIAL ISSUE)  
  PROPOSAL OF SPECIAL ISSUE  
 
The editors of CSC require copies of all correspondence between reviewers and Guest Editors at the time that the completed draft of the special issue is submitted to CSC. Guest Editors should keep the CSC Editorial Office informed by e-mail of progress in preparing the special issue and in particular alert them in advance if agreed deadlines are likely to slip.
 
FINAL SELECTION
final selection of paper
  Once the final selection of papers has been made and final versions (as per CSC format guidelines) of all these have been received, the Guest Editors should inform CSC Editorial Office about the total number of accepted papers for the special issue.
The CSC Editorial Office will then check the quality of the issue with the help of Editor-in-Chief before forwarding it for publication. The Editorial Office reserve the right to request a third review of papers and, if necessary, to request modifications to an issue before approving it for publication. However, the procedures set out above are designed to minimize the need for such measures.
 
  SPECIAL SECTIONS  
  proposals for special sections  
  Our editors of all journals also welcome proposals for special sections within an issue of the journal (a total of 1-3 papers, including a brief introductory piece). The procedures for preparing proposals and editing “successful” special sections are the same as for special issues, with the exception of the number of papers involved.  
  JOURNAL PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM  
  International Journal Partnership program  
 
Journals with shared scientific goals and missions are welcome for International Journal Partnership program. The main benefit of this program is the wider dissemination of scientific information to new audiences. Marketing benefits include an enhanced credibility of each partner – both journals benefit from increased visibility by providing reciprocal presence and recognition on websites and in advertisements.
Other benefits are to co-publish research papers, meeting reports or reviews. Partners might also decide to exchange editorial board appointments to allow better understanding of journal activities and access to processes.
