Important Notice: Change in Format for Published Research Papers

2023-12-11

Dear Authors,

We hope this message finds you well. We are writing to inform you of a significant update in the format of published research papers in IJGASR. All papers of old issues will be formatted, we will be implementing changes to enhance the accessibility and readability of our publications.

Change in Format: All accepted research papers will be published in two formats:

  1. JATS-XML (Journal Article Tag Suite - XML): This format is designed to improve the interoperability and machine-readability of the articles.
  2. InDesign Formatted PDF: In addition to the traditional PDF format, we will now also provide an InDesign-formatted PDF to offer a more visually appealing layout.

Content Integrity: We want to reassure all authors that these changes are solely related to the presentation format, and there will be no alterations made to the content of your research papers. The transition is aimed at enhancing the overall user experience while maintaining the integrity of your valuable contributions.

How This Affects You: As an author, you are not required to take any action regarding this change. The editorial and production teams will handle the formatting process, ensuring a seamless transition.

Benefits of the New Format:

  1. Improved machine-readability for better indexing and searchability.
  2. Enhanced visual presentation with InDesign-formatted PDFs.
  3. Better overall accessibility and user experience for readers.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we implement these changes to elevate the quality and accessibility of our journal's publications. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to the editorial team at icapsra@gmail.com.

Thank you for your continued support of IJGASR.

Best Regards

Team IJGASR
