The Process of Creating a New Journal with Barw

Launching a new journal requires careful planning, academic vision, and logistical coordination. At Barw, we streamline this process to help you build a high-impact journal that meets the needs of the academic community. Here’s a detailed guide to creating a journal with us:

1. Initial Concept and Proposal

Before initiating the journal creation process, it is essential to outline the vision, scope, and objectives of the proposed journal. Barw encourages prospective journal founders to present a comprehensive proposal that includes the following elements:

Journal Scope: Define the specific subject area, interdisciplinary focus, and target readership. Your journal should address a clear gap in existing academic literature or provide a novel perspective on a well-established field.

Aims and Objectives: Articulate the key goals of the journal, such as promoting new methodologies, advancing theoretical frameworks, or presenting cutting-edge research.

Editorial Board: Assemble an esteemed editorial board with respected scholars and professionals who share your vision for the journal. The editorial board is central to ensuring the academic rigor of your publication.

Content Types: Specify the types of content your journal will publish, such as original research articles, reviews, opinion pieces, case studies, or methodological contributions.

A strong proposal demonstrates a clear academic direction and the potential to create a journal that will make a meaningful contribution to the scholarly community.

2. Journal Design and Development

Once your proposal is accepted, Barw’s editorial and publishing teams will work closely with you to establish the structural framework of your journal. Key decisions during this phase include:

Frequency and Volume: Determine the publication frequency (e.g., quarterly, biannual, annual) and the expected volume of articles per issue. This will depend on the scope and demand for the journal.

Editorial Policies: Develop policies for submission, peer review, publication ethics, and open access (if applicable). These policies should align with Barw’s ethical standards and the expectations of your discipline.

Peer Review Process: Define whether your journal will use single-blind, double-blind, or open peer review. This process is fundamental to ensuring the integrity and academic credibility of the journal.

Manuscript Submission System: Barw will assist in configuring the manuscript submission system, enabling authors to submit, track, and revise their work efficiently.

3. Editorial Board Recruitment and Role Definition

The editorial board plays a pivotal role in shaping the direction and quality of the journal. Barw offers guidance on recruiting editorial board members who are recognized experts in the journal’s subject area. Key considerations for board recruitment include:

Editorial Leadership: Appointing an Editor-in-Chief, Managing Editors, and Section Editors with a strong academic and editorial background is crucial for maintaining editorial independence and quality.

Advisory Board: In addition to the editorial board, an advisory board of prominent scholars can provide strategic guidance and enhance the journal’s reputation in the academic community.

Barw can assist in identifying and inviting potential editorial board members, ensuring a diverse and globally representative team of experts.

4. Launch and Promotion

After the journal structure is in place and the editorial team is established, Barw will support you in the journal’s official launch and ongoing promotion. Our marketing team will work with you to create tailored strategies, such as:
