Publishing standards

The principles behind responsible journal publishing.

Harrowell builds these standards into the way journals are governed, supported, published and developed.

Editorial independence

Structures that keep scholarly decisions with editors and editorial boards.

Consistent processes for peer review, conflicts of interest and concerns.

Clear policies for authorship, corrections, retractions and updates.

Operational handoffs that keep editorial and production work on track.

Metadata and preservation planning that helps research remain available.

Clear responsibilities, reporting and regular review across the service.
