Preparing your manuscript

Next page: Submitting your manuscript
Previous page: Choosing a journal

We have decided where to submit our manuscript. What should we do now?

 

General ERS policies

There are certain requirements that are unanimous across ERS publications, so it is always useful to check the following first:

  • Check you are not in contravention of the  ERS policy on tobacco
  • Check your funding body’s policy on open access and copyright transfer
  • Check all authors have completed an ICMJE conflict of interest disclosure, as we require these to be included at submission
  • Check all co-authors have consented to submission and you have their email addresses – email addresses are required to ensure we can contact authors for any required publication materials

Do you have instructions for authors for us to follow?

Each of our publications has ‘Instructions for Authors’ guidelines on its respective website:

European Respiratory Journal: http://erj.ersjournals.com/authors/instructions

ERJ Open Research: http://openres.ersjournals.com/authors/instructions

European Respiratory Review: http://err.ersjournals.com/authors/instructions

Breathe: http://breathe.ersjournals.com/authors/instructions

It is best to prepare your manuscript according to each publication’s instructions, as there may be specific instructions relating to manuscript length, format and article types.

Our manuscript uses a large dataset. Do you have a data repository?

ERS research journals encourage data sharing through the Dryad data repository (http://datadryad.org/). Although an author fee is payable when depositing data with Dryad, the ERS has allocated funds to cover deposit fees for an introductory period. For a more detailed overview of depositing your data with Dryad, go to: http://www.ersjournals.com/authors/data-sharing
