Length. There’s a lot of flexibility. Most of Berkshire Old and New articles are between 3,000 and 4,500 words. Use that as a rule of thumb. A shorter article is fine, and we might be able to accommodate a longer one. Word count isn’t everything. Notes and references and illustrations also affect the space required.
References. We encourage you to give full references to your sources in the form of numbered notes – footnotes if you prefer in your script, but they are always endnotes in the published journal. We use the form of citation Author, Title (date) p.00. We don’t use Harvard citations.
Illustrations. Photographs, diagrams, etc are welcome. The journal is printed in black and white, so I am afraid we will not do justice to your beautifully coloured maps (perhaps on the cover, though). Send your illustrations as separate files, not embedded in the text document.
Rights and permissions. You are responsible for obtaining all copyright and other permissions for the material reproduced. The BLHA does not have funds to pay copyright fees.
The editing process. Berkshire Old and New is published once a year in the autumn. Articles submitted after mid-June are unlikely to get into that year’s journal. On receipt, articles are sent to a small team of readers who look out for possible factual errors and suggest ways to improve the article. It’s not quite the full peer review of an academic journal, but the readers give invaluable support to both author and editor. I look after all the copy editing for house style, missing words, etc. I will edit for length if necessary, though that is a rare occurrence.
