Submission processing will commence on the current or next working day.  Please ensure that you respond promptly to enquiries from staff.

Status Monitoring on My LA

Shortly after submission of your manuscript you will receive an email containing your My LA login details.  Log in to My LA to monitor the status of your submission. 

Email Updates

You will be sent regular updates by Libertas staff.  If you don't receive updates for an extended period please contact jan.mciver @ la-press.com to ensure that our record of your communication details is correct.

Portability of Peer Review

If a submitted manuscript is determined to not reach the interest criteria of a Libertas journal but is sound and within the scope of another Libertas journal, we offer authors the opportunity to transfer the manuscript together with the reviewer reports to the other journal. 

Authors are asked for their consent prior to their manuscript and reviewer reports being shared with the second journal’s editor in chief.  No action by the author other than expressing agreement by reply email is needed.
