How to Submit a Paper
Manuscripts should be submitted in electronic format, one each for text, tables, and figures. We recommend that the text be in Word or WordPerfect format. Tables can also be provided in Excel or other spreadsheet formats. Figures may be provided in PowerPoint. Text files should also include an abstract of no more than 200 words. Authors can use the format for references that is most commonly used in their discipline or profession.
The text file should begin with a page that includes the title, authors and their institutional affiliations, acknowledgments, and an appropriate recognition of funding sources. Please list e-mail addresses for all the authors. Once received, the manuscript will be reviewed by the steering committee for appropriateness and content. Minor or major revisions may be requested prior to distribution. All papers will be edited for grammar and spelling. A revised version of the manuscript will be sent to the author(s) for response to any queries and for final approval. You are of course welcome to the final version of the electronic files.
Send submissions, including a cover letter, to Karen Anderson at the following address: ander352@umn.edu.
