Guidance for Authors
Consideration
Occasional Papers are assessed for academic acceptability by the
Editor, College Publications, and other professionals (usually two)
with special interests. Other books may be submitted as proposals
with a sample chapter, but preferably as a full-length text. They
are also subject to academic assessment by expert referees.
Referees are asked to declare any possible conflict of
interest they may have, from a personal, academic, or financial
point of view, which might affect their judgement when making the
assessment. They may recommend publication, publication subject to
revision by the author, or rejection. Their reports are made to the
Editor, College Publications, whose decision is final. Although
reports are confidential they may be sent to the author anonymously
to help with redrafting.
