Peer Review Process

  • Each article is reviewed by at least two independent reviewers from outside the institute.
  • For articles written in a language other than Polish, at least one reviewer is affiliated with a foreign academic centre but of different nationality than the Author.
  • A model is preferred in which the Author or authors are not aware of each other’s identitydouble-blind review process).
  •  In other instances, the reviewer is obliged to sign a declaration saying there is no conflict of interest. The following situations are regarded as a conflict of interest: a) direct personal relations (family or legal relationship, conflict), b) work relationships, especially for subordinates c) direct scholarly cooperation in the two years preceding the review.
  • The review must take a written form and end with an unambiguous conclusion on whether or not the article should be published.
  •  Names of reviewers of given publications or issues are published in each issue.
  • A negative review results in rejection of the text by the editor-in-chief. The text after needed alterations is to be reviewed once more.

Statement of the Ethical Principles of the Journal Folia Bibliologica

The statement on the ethical principles of the journal Folia Bibliologica has been prepared based on the guidelines of the Committee of Publication Ethics - COPE (www.publicationethics.org) and the guidelines of the Elsevier publishing house. To ensure high quality of published texts, the journal Folia Bibliologica shall adhere to certain ethical standards.

Editorial Board

  1. 1.      All manifestations of scientific dishonesty found by the editorial board shall be disclosed and notified to competent entities, in particular to the institutions hiring the author, and to academic and publishing associations.
  2. 2.      In the case of multi-authorship, the editorial board of Folia Bibliologica requires that the contribution of individual authors to the text be specified. In such a situation, the affiliation, percentage of the creative contribution to the paper should be specified for each author. It is necessary to identify the author of the concept, assumptions and methods used in the development of the publication. This responsibility is first and foremost vested in the person who submits the text for publication.
  3. 3.      The editorial board shall document all manifestations of scientific dishonesty, in particular infringements of the principles of ethics in science.
  4. 4.      In particular, so-called Ghostwriting and Guest Authorship is deemed by the editorial board a manifestation of scientific dishonesty. Ghostwriting means any situations in which a particular person makes a significant contribution to the publication without being credited as one of the authors of the publication, or without mentioning his/her role in the acknowledgements contained in the publication. Guest Authorship is understood by the editorial board as all situations in which the author's contribution is actually negligible or non-existent, but he or she is still identified as the author or co-author of the publication.

Designated peer-reviewers are supposed to guarantee independence and lack of conflict of interest in the relationship between the reviewer and the author, which entails the lack of direct personal relationship, professional dependence and direct research cooperation for the period of two years prior to preparing the review.
