BCPHR Author Hub

BCPHR is building new hub to assist authors as they prepare and submit their manuscripts for consideration.

Before submitting a manuscript, authors must familiarize themselves with the following:

• Submission guidelines pertinent to their type of manuscript (e.g. quantitative research article, op-ed, etc.),
• Submission pricing for the time period that they are submitting,
• Publication pricing for the time period that they are submitting,
• Criteria for manuscript desk rejection, and (e) criteria for manuscript acceptance.

 
All questions pertaining to the manuscript peer review process must be asked before submission. It will be upon the Journal’s discretion to answer questions about the manuscript while it is actively being reviewed.

Once a manuscript has been submitted, there will be no reimbursement of submission fees. If the manuscript is withdrawn once the peer review process has been initiated, then a fee will be incurred. If a manuscript goes through the peer review process and is accepted — and the author(s) fail to acknowledge acceptance for publication — then a $200 fee will be incurred.

Please note: Articles published prior to January 2025 are available at BCPHR.org. Articles published in January 2025 and beyond are published at BCPHReview.org. 

BCPHR is an open-access journal. All manuscripts are freely available without charge to the user or his/her institution. Users are allowed to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of the articles, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without asking prior permission from the publisher or the author. Authors retain rights to their work.
