Call for Proposals: Edited Books and Edited Volumes
DScholar Press International formally invites academics, senior faculty members, independent researchers, and subject matter experts worldwide to submit proposals to curate Edited Books / Edited Volumes as Volume Editors.
We publish across a comprehensive spectrum of academic disciplines, including the Social Sciences, Humanities, Management, Law, Education, Science, Technology, and interdisciplinary fields. Driven by a commitment to publication integrity, all projects strictly align with the ethical standards set by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
Core Publication Features & Advantages- Global Credibility Identifiers: Allocation of a formal, internationally recognised ISBN for every title, alongside permanent Crossref Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) for digital e-book sections to guarantee tracing, citation impact, and long-term archiving.
- Dual Distribution Formats: Seamless production and international availability across both digital E-Book layouts and premium physical Print-on-Demand formats.
- Rolling Submissions ("No Due Date"): We maintain an open-ended, continuous submission cycle. Volume editors may submit metadata and proposals at their own convenience when fully prepared.
- Elite Discoverability & Indexing Support: Strategic tracking and formatting support to assist the indexing of eligible volumes in major global databases such as SCOPUS, Web of Science, BASE, and Google Books.
- Annual Royalty Allocation: In accordance with our fair-use publishing framework, book editors receive a recurring annual royalty based on the net commercial revenue generated by their publication.
If you are planning to organise, define, and curate an academic collection under a specific thematic umbrella, you are invited to submit an Edited Book / Edited Volume Proposal.
Primary Roles & Responsibilities:
- Conceptualization & Scope: Outline a sound, academically rigorous structural framework and objective outline for the proposed book.
- Contributor Coordination: Direct calls, formally invite contributing authors, and manage basic communications.
- Co-Editor Collaboration: Cooperate with joint co-editors if applicable to diversify the project’s scope and interdisciplinary outreach.
- Editorial Integrity: Oversee the structural assembly, verify that content meets technical benchmarks, and enforce ethical writing conventions.
Depending on the specific series, publisher agreements, or indexing goals, edited volumes may be peer-reviewed or may not be peer-reviewed. The evaluation process (whether a full double-blind peer review, a formal editorial board review, or an internal editor assessment) is determined at the project's onset. Please check the specific parameters for the exact review framework assigned to your volume.
Available categories include:
- Peer-Reviewed Books / Volumes: Routed through strict external evaluation phases ensuring elite scholarly recognition.
- Non-Peer-Reviewed Books / Volumes: Moving through rapid operational workflows managed by our internal advisory speed metrics.
