Dedicated services to help authors publish with confidence
All Adis journals offer:
Pre-Submission Enquiry Service
This service provides expert pre-submission technical feedback on the suitability of a proposed submission early in the manuscript development process, allowing you to target the most suitable journal for your work.
You can check the suitability of your manuscript for a specific Adis journal, or across the entirety of our portfolio. This free-of-charge service works with a 2-working day response time to your enquiry and can be contacted at
SharedIt
All articles are included in the Springer Nature SharedIt content sharing initiative. SharedIt provides a shareable link for each published article that gives access to a view-only, full-text version for non-commercial personal use. Links can be shared anywhere, including via social media channels, institutional repositories, scholarly collaborative networks and more.
Timely and Responsive Peer Review
All Adis journals offer swift publication timelines through our Adis Premier journals, Adis VIP service, and the Adis Rapid+ journals.
Further information on timelines can be found on the individual journal websites.
Cascading Options
If a manuscript is considered unsuitable for the journal to which it has been submitted at any stage, it may be cascaded to sister titles within the Adis journal portfolio or to wider Springer Nature titles, with the author’s permission.
Article Metrics
Key article metrics are available on SpringerLink, including article accesses, Altmetric score, and citations.
Further metrics are available on request.

If you are interested in submitting a paper to one of our journals, we recommend that you first read the Aims and Scope and Instructions for Authors sections on the individual journal pages on Springer Nature Link. These sections will provide you with information on the type of papers that will be accepted by the title, the layout and format you should follow, and details of our policies and procedures.
Once you are ready to submit a manuscript, you can do this using the Editorial Manager manuscript-tracking system. Select ‘Submit manuscript’ on the relevant journal page to go through to the system. Step-by-step instructions are available on the site.
If you are submitting to an Adis Rapid+ journal, then the Rapid+ team can submit the manuscript on your behalf.
