Once your article has been accepted, but before it can proceed into production, we need a signed licence to publish form. Further information about this may be found in the publishing agreement page.
Funding open access
Multiple funding routes are available for Gold Open Access articles. Please see this journal's open access options for details.
Author Information Form
After acceptance you will receive an email from [email protected] inviting you to complete an Author Information Form. You will be required to confirm information relating to your article, which will be reflected in your final publication and in your digital publishing agreement, if applicable. Once you have completed the Author Information form and signed your publishing agreement, your article will proceed into production.
Production
Once an article has been accepted and the Author Information Form has been completed, the process of copyediting, typesetting, proofing, and publishing the article will begin.
Your point of contact with Cambridge University Press will be the content manager of the journal. For more information about how production works at Cambridge University Press, please see our information about our publication journey, which explains how an article goes from accepted manuscript to fully published. Note that there may be small variances in this process between journals. More information is available at our Journal Production FAQs.
FirstView
JICSP uses the FirstView system to publish articles online ahead of the print edition. For more details please see our FAQs.
Corrections
Changes cannot be made to articles once published, either online in FirstView or as part of an issue. Any changes must be made via the standard process of issuing a correction notice. Please contact the Editorial Office and Content Manager for the journal if any error has been identified. The final decision on whether a correction notice should be published will be taken by the Publisher in consultation with the Editorial Team. For more information please refer to our FAQs.
Proofs
Proofs are supplied to contributors to ensure that the printed version coincides with the manuscript accepted and that there are no copy-editing mistakes in the final version. Rewriting sections of an article in proof is not possible. Please make sure that your accepted manuscript is in its final form before it is sent to the printer. All authors should try to return their proofs within three days of receipt.
Access to your article
Once your article has been published, authors will receive a code which will provide perpetual access in both HTML and PDF formats.
