Imbas Journal
A selection of papers will be published in our new established peer-reviewed journal, Imbas: The Journal of the National University of Ireland, Galway Postgraduate Medieval Studies Conference. This journal will be made available via our website and open-access journal databases. All panels will be recorded and made available as podcasts.
Preliminary Publishing Guidelines
• Deadline for journal submissions will be 14 February 2010. Papers submitted after this deadline will not be accepted.
• Submitted papers must not exceed 5000 words in length (not including the bibliography) and must be formatted in the MHRA style with footnotes
• Papers will be selected through a competitive peer-reviewed selection. An initial selection will be made by the conference committee. Successful papers will then be assessed by an external committee consisting of six lecturers of various disciplines from various Irish universities.
• The members of the external editing committee for 2009 are: Dr. Ken Rooney (Dpt. of English, University College Cork), Dr. Catherine Swift (Irish Studies, Mary Immaculate College, University of Limerick), Dr Christina Haywood (Dpt. Head, School of Classics, University College Dublin), Dr Mark Gardiner (Senior Lecturer in Medieval Archaeology, Queens University Belfast), Dr. Ian Robinson (Dpt. of History, Trinity College Dublin) and Dr Muireann Ni Bhrolchain (Dpt. of Medieval Irish and Celtic Studies, National University of Ireland, Maynooth).
• Selected papers will be subject to two rounds of editing before being made available on the Imbas website as well as open-access journal databases
• The number of published papers will depend upon submissions. It is likely that approximately five papers will be published.
• Authors will retain copyrights over the published material and will be free to publish the material elsewhere
• A paper publication of these chosen articles will be made obtainable through a self-publication website (http://www.lulu.com/uk), through which the journal will be available for order on demand
