Email your formatted document to ManuscriptSubmission@gmail.com only unless we expressly ask you otherwise. If you inadvertently email it to other IJAS email addresses, it could trigger a multiple deletion of the same manuscript.
In the Subject line of your email, include (i) your Research ID number (e.g. VEN877) that was included in the original letter of acceptance we had sent you to attend the conference; (ii) the full name of one of the authors (e.g. John Doe) who will be registering, or has registered, for the conference; and (iii) the code for the track under which your research would fit best. Treat proceedings as a separate track. See explanation below:
• business for the business and economics track,
• education for the teaching and education track,
• humanities for the humanities and social sciences track,
• science for the science and technology track, and, most important
• proceedings for the proceedings if you want your submission to be considered for the proceedings instead of the journals.
If you don’t opt for the proceedings, it’s the editors who decide which refereed journal would be best for your manuscript. Of course, all this is conditional upon the reviewers’ approval of your work. If an article is a summary or too short, it will automatically be considered for the proceedings.
Hence, if John Doe would like his manuscript (e.g., identified as VEN377) about elementary education to appear in the proceedings, his email’s subject line will read:
VEN377 John Doe – proceedings
But if he would like it to appear in one of the journals instead, his email’s subject line would read:
VEN377 John Doe – education
since “edu” would alert us that he would like it to appear instead in one of the refereed journals that carry education articles.
Grammar: Before you send us your abstract/manuscript for publication, at the very minimum, run it on http://www.grammarly.com/, an automated proofreader that finds and corrects over 250 types of grammatical errors. Grammarly is much more effective than Microsoft Word in correcting grammatical mistakes. As a professor, the onus is on you to fix the grammar in your work; our reviewers exert control by accepting or rejecting your work. Rhode Island limits the extent of control a publisher may exercise over a third party’s work especially when it is shared free of charge and published at minimal expense (such as through a pro bono double-blind review process). A federal court decision applying Rhode Island law has held that truth is not an absolute defense to an action for tortious interference. Our authors maintain full copyright and control over their intellectual property. They may publish their work elsewhere, whenever and wherever they like, without the need for our authorization. The right to express one’s work as freely and widely as possible raises legal and ethical issues which limit the extent of intrusion by other parties.
