Cadernos do Arquivo
Municipal does not charge any fees for the submission process, peer
review, publication and availability of texts. Conditions for submission As part of the process, authors are required to check that the
submission complies with all the items listed below. Submissions that do not
comply with these standards will be returned to the authors. • The paper is original, unpublished and the parts that come from
other works are duly referenced. It is not under review or for publication in
another journal. Otherwise, the author(s) should inform the journal editors. • Authorship is subject to a grace period of four issues. • Only one proposal per author and/or co-author will be accepted for a
single issue and must be submitted using the submission template. • The section for which the text is intended must be indicated:
Thematic Dossier, Articles or Book Reviews. • Authors' names, ORCIDs, affiliations (R&D centres,
faculties and universities) and email addresses. • Language of the text: Portuguese (according to the new spelling
agreement), Spanish, French or English. Title, abstract and keywords in the
language of the text, in English and in Portuguese. • Limit of 10,000 words for articles and 2,000 for book reviews,
including footnotes and bibliographical references. • Maximum of 10 images, although this limit may be altered by the
editors. All images, tables and charts must be numbered sequentially and
their position in the text must be indicated. Images must have an associated
caption and tables and graphs must have a title (and caption, if applicable).
Images must be referenced in the text. Images that belong to the collection
of the Lisbon Municipal Archive can be used as available on the respective
website. Those that are not part of this collection must be delivered as
separate files, in jpeg or tiff format. • Authors are solely responsible for obtaining publication rights for
images used in the articles, or for any other copyrighted material (property,
etc.) that is not part of the Lisbon Municipal Archive's collection and will
only be published on presentation of proof of publication authorisation. • The declaration of Authorisation and Transfer of Rights for Publication must be completed, signed
and submitted together with the article. Citations and bibliographical references All studies and printed sources cited in the text must be included in
a final list of bibliographical references, presented in accordance with APA
guidelines (7th edition). This list can only contain the studies and printed
sources cited in the text. Examples can be found in the submission
template. If handwritten sources are cited in the text, they should be
footnoted. Selection, revision and publication 1. Desk Review Stage 1 • Identification of plagiarism and recycled text. If detected, the
paper is returned to the author(s). Works published in other journals or
translations are not accepted. Stage 2 • Any text that does not fulfil the requirements identified above will
be returned to the author(s) at the end of the desk review for reformulation.
If it is reformulated, the author may submit it again, one last time.
Texts that do not fulfil these criteria will be definitively rejected. 2. Scientific Review The following elements are taken into consideration in the scientific
review: originality of the article; relevance, coherence and depth of the
topic; suitability of the title, abstract and keywords as well as the
introduction and conclusion; clarity of language and quality of the writing;
logic and consistency of the argumentation; adequacy of the research methods;
adequacy and rigour of the analysis and
interpretation of sources; appropriateness of the bibliography used. According to these criteria, the reviewers provide an opinion with one
of the following recommendations: accept the text as is, reject the text, or
suggest rewriting it. The decision to publish the article is the sole
responsibility of the editors, who will communicate it to the author(s) along
with the respective opinions. When a reformulation is proposed, the new
version sent by the author will be re-evaluated in a double-blind peer
review. At the very least, the article may be rejected. The editors may request opinions from the reviewers as many times as
necessary in order to substantiate their final decision. The review process is scheduled to last three months and its outcome,
which is unappealable in all cases, is communicated to the author(s) within a
maximum of six months. 3. Copy Desk The editors reserve the right to make any necessary formal changes,
such as correcting citations and bibliographical references, as long as the
meaning of the text remains unchanged. During the Copy Desk, the author may be asked to make
adjustments or add missing elements. 4. Publication Cadernos do Arquivo
