Instructions For Authors of Accepted Manuscripts

Please read each section carefully, look at the samples, and follow the instructions (very important).

JCR and its publisher, the University of Chicago Press, have a "publish when ready" program where articles will appear online prior to publication of the paper copy. A preprint will be posted within a few days of receipt of the final materials from the author. The official online publication will appear approximately two to four weeks later.

Please get your final materials in as soon as possible to take advantage of this.

We hope that if you currently do not have an individual subscription to JCR, you and your co-authors will subscribe (it's only $65 per year for association members such as ACR). JCR operates on subscription income, so your subscription shows support for the journal that publishes your papers (we don't charge a submission fee to cover costs). You may request an electronic-only subscription if you do not wish to receive a paper copy.

You can get access to JCR articles in many ways, but an individual subscription shows your personal support.

Subscribe to JCR (link to publisher). Select the MEMBER rate.

Please fill out and send the library recommendation/renewal form to your business school and general university libraries.

Library Recommendation/Renewal Form for JCR

The regular instructions follow. Please be sure to use the style sheet as a check list so that every item in your manuscript conforms.

Please read every section carefully prior to submitting your final materials.

Please note: If you removed the names of schools for the blind review process, please make sure you put them back for publication. "A large midwestern university" isn't very meaningful to readers in other countries.
