Author Guidelines

Les/Wood publishes original scientific articles and reviews in Slovene and English according to the diamond open access model. Submissions received by the Editorial Team are screened for consistency with the journal focus and then assigned to members of the Editorial Board or to outside experts for review. Each manuscript is subjected to two single-blind reviews. The form and date of publication of the article are decided by the editors.

The authors are responsible for manuscript content and originality (see About the Journal /Ethical Statement).

All articles are required to have a title, abstract, keywords, chapter headings, image and table captions, and keywords in both Slovene and English. Articles written in English must include a longer (3,000 – 6,000 characters with spaces) summary in Slovene, and the articles written in Slovene must contain a longer summary in English. Authors are responsible for readable and accurate English and Slovenian translations of the required elements (title, abstract, keywords, table and figure captions, and summary ). For international authors, the journal will provide a Slovenian translation of the required elements listed above only in exceptional cases and by prior arrangement.

Manuscripts are accepted throughout the year.
