The State Scientific and Technical Library of Ukraine (SSTL) shared a guide ‘Peer Review Survival Skills’. 

What happens when you submit an academic paper to a journal? What do the editors do? And most importantly, what happens during the peer review process? 

Research Square, Scholastica, and Access 2 Perspectives have joined forces to bring you this Survival Guide. 

The aim of this guide is to help you understand the post-submission journey of a paper. We’ll talk about editors’ primary concerns during initial manuscript review, the choices they make, and the stages of peer review at most scholarly journals so you’ll have a better chance of success the next time you submit a paper.
