The North Carolina Law Review is proud to announce a new forum for legal academics and practitioners to publish cutting-edge scholarship: Addendum.
Publication
A new issue of Addendum will be published six times per year, beginning in May 2010, on the North Carolina Law Review’s website, http://www.nclawreview.net/addendum. Addendum will be accessible on the front page of the website, and a link will be included on every page.
A link to Addendum will be distributed by email to subscribers whenever a new issue is published on the website.
Guidelines for Submissions
We invite judges, professors, researchers, lecturers, practicing attorneys, and UNC students to submit pieces to nclrev@gmail.com. Publication decisions will be made on a rolling basis. The Editorial Board strives to reach decisions quickly. Most authors will be notified of a decision within two weeks of submitting.
Professional Articles should be limited to 15-20 manuscript pages in length. Student pieces should be limited to 12-15 pages. There is no limitation on subject matter or topic. Submissions on any and all topics of legal scholarship will be considered for publication.
Editing Process
Addendum articles will undergo a rigorous editing process to guarantee factual, grammatical, and Bluebooking accuracy. The process will span several distinct phases over a seven-week period. The editing process is designed to be both thorough and fast, to ensure that articles meet the most exacting academic standards while also reaching the readership quickly. The editing process is as follows:
1. Primary Editing (1 week)
This phase is the only substantive editing phase in the editing process.
2. First Author Revisions (1 week; Monday through Monday)
3. Cite Checking (1.5 weeks)
The cite check is thorough, with the same exacting requirements as our print edition.
4. Second Author Revisions (1 week)
5. “Web” Proofing (1.5 weeks)
This phase is the same as the Book Proof phase in print editing.
6. Final Author Review (Half a week)
The edited article is sent to the author for one final quick look through.
7. Publication (Monday)
