IJRCH only uses online submissions. Authors must submit their manuscripts online through the Open Journal System (OJS) online submission system at: https://jurnal.untan.ac.id/index.php/IJERCH. First-time OJS users must register first. Go to the website and click on the ''Register Now'' link in the login menu. Enter the requested information.

Before submission, authors are strongly encouraged to read the “Author Instructions.” When submitting via the website, you will be guided step by step through the creation and upload of various files. Revised documents are uploaded in the same way as the original submission. The system automatically generates an electronic proof (PDF), which is then used for review purposes. All correspondence, including editor requests for revisions and final decisions, is sent via email.

Submission Requirements

Language
The Journal accepts both British- and American-English submissions. However, the journal mainly uses American-English and the editors reserve the right to alter usage to that end. Simple sentence structures and clear expressions are encouraged for the benefit of all readers, especially those for whom English is a second language.

 

Length
Articles should normally be between 5,000-8,000 words. Submissions outside this range are advised to make contact with the Editors in Chief. This includes references, footnotes, tables, figures, acknowledgments, etc. We encourage authors to keep their initial submissions below 8,000 words, since reviewers often ask for additional information, explanation, etc., thus resulting in longer revised manuscripts.

 

Publication

Proofs

Upon acceptance, a PDF of the article proofs will be sent to each author by e-mail to check carefully for factual and typographic errors. Authors are responsible for checking these proofs and are strongly urged to make use of the Comment & Markup toolbar to note their corrections directly on the proofs. At this stage in the production process only minor corrections are allowed. Alterations to the original manuscript at this stage will result in considerable delay in publication and, therefore, are not accepted unless charged to the author. Proofs should be returned within 7 days of receipt to the journal manager.

 

A PDF

file of the article will be supplied free of charge by the publisher to authors for personal use.  The Author retains the right to self-archive the submitted (pre-peer- review) version of the article at any time. The submitted version of an article is the author’s version that has not been peer-reviewed.  The Author retains the right to self-archive the accepted (peer-reviewed) version without any embargo period. The accepted version means the version that has been accepted for publication and contains all revisions made after peer reviewing and copy editing, but has not yet been typeset in the publisher’s lay- out. The publisher’s lay-out must not be used in any repository or on any website.

 

Consent to Publish

Transfer of Copyright

By submitting a manuscript, the author agrees that the copyright for the article is transferred to the Publisher if and when the article is accepted for publication. For that purpose the author needs to sign the Consent to Publish which will be sent with the first proofs of the manuscript.
