The Summer 1999 issue of DSQ is available for an intrepid special editor
on any disability related topic. We are now completing the Fall 1998 and
the Winter 1999 issues so you will have until August 1999 to submit it. I
am enclosing the guidelines below.
David Pfeiffer, Editor
Disability Studies Quarterly
Instructions to Special Editors and Contributors
Every article published in the Quarterly is reviewed by the
editor, the special editor, and/or the book review editor.
Although not technically a refereed publication, scholarly and
professional standards are expected from the authors.
Please submit all material in IBM compatible format in ASCII
either on a 5 1/4" or a 3 1/2" disk. Do not use footnotes on the
page or any imbedded notes because they will not print correctly.
All notes (if used) must be endnotes. If "References" are
provided, all citations in the list must be included in the notes
or the text. Any citation not included will be deleted. If a
"Bibliography" is provided (which includes all references), it
can contain material not cited in the text or the notes. Any
appropriate and clear form of citation can be used. However, it
must be consistent throughout the material.
Gender specific pronouns should be avoided unless
appropriate. The form "people with disabilities" or something
similar must be used. Do not use contractions or slang unless it
is in the original text which is being quoted. Corrections of
grammar and syntax will be done, but every effort will be made to
keep the original wording.
Work previously published must be so noted with a complete
citation. If a copyright was obtained on the previously
published work, written permission from the copyright holder must
be included. Previously published work is not encouraged.
While there is no page limitation on individual
contributions, authors should discuss the number of pages with
the issue editor. The overall issue length is dependent upon
funding.
Contributors who are not subscribers are encouraged to
subscribe. The managing editor will provide a copy of an issue
in which a non-subscriber's material appeared.
Authors are responsible for meeting these guidelines.
Special editors are responsible for enforcing these guidelines.
The editor's decision in these matters is final, but the editor
is very grateful to all contributors and special editors for
their hard work.
