Submitting to Inderscience journals
What we hold as Inderscience’s house rules, and where each one was read. A journal’s own guide for authors always comes first: a rule here is used only where that guide is silent.

What the journal decides, not Inderscience
These vary between Inderscience journals, so we do not hold a house value for them. Your journal’s own guide for authors is where to look.
