Author Guidelines

Author Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts to the Al-Noor Journal for Digital Heritage and Cultural Preservation (NJDHCP). All submissions are initially evaluated by the editorial team to determine whether they align with the journal’s aims and scope. Manuscripts considered suitable will then proceed to a double-blind peer review process to determine their eligibility for publication.

Before submitting a manuscript, authors must ensure that they have obtained the necessary permissions to publish any copyrighted material included in the submission, such as images, figures, documents, or datasets. All individuals listed as authors must have made a significant contribution to the research and must agree to be identified as co-authors of the manuscript.

Where applicable, research involving human participants, cultural heritage materials, or institutional data must receive approval from the relevant ethics committee or institutional review board in accordance with the legal and ethical regulations of the country in which the research was conducted.

The editorial team reserves the right to reject a submission at the initial stage (desk rejection) if the manuscript does not meet the journal’s minimum standards of academic quality, originality, or relevance to the journal’s scope.

Authors are encouraged to carefully prepare their manuscripts before submission. The research design, methodology, and argument should be clearly structured and logically presented. The title should be concise and informative, and the abstract should provide a clear and independent summary of the study.

Ensuring that these requirements are met will significantly improve the likelihood of the manuscript being sent for peer review. Once authors are confident that their submission satisfies these standards, they should follow the journal’s submission checklist to complete the submission process.
