Overview for authors and editors

We invite you to join a community of world-renowned thought leaders who have partnered with Elsevier.

Elsevier has a proud publishing history built on valued partnerships with authors to bring quality products to professionals and institutions throughout the world. Today, as an information analytics company on the forefront of digital innovation, Elsevier’s commitment to these content partnerships has not wavered.

Digital delivery

When you partner with Elsevier, you will work with a dedicated team of professionals to create content that is optimized for delivery in a variety of electronic formats, including potential publication on the leading full-text scientific database ScienceDirect Wird in neuem Tab/Fenster geöffnet, which reaches more than 16 million users worldwide, or ClinicalKey, a medical search engine and database. When appropriate, books are also submitted to Scopus Wird in neuem Tab/Fenster geöffnet, the largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature: scientific journals, books, and conference proceedings.

Smart authoring tools

You may have the opportunity to leverage our authoring tool Elsa to streamline the content creation process.  Elsa uses smart features such as automatic numbering and re-numbering of manuscript elements such as figures, tables, boxes, and references and the Publishing Assistant helps ensure that your manuscript meets submission requirements in real-time.

Elsa also centralizes communication so you can easily collaborate with all your publishing partners in one place.

Inclusion and diversity

Our publishing team values diversity in all its dimensions. We are passionately committed to providing accessible content and increasing inclusion, diversity, and equity in research, healthcare, and education publishing.

Editors and editorial board members are encouraged to consider the need for appropriate, inclusive, and diverse representation, as we aim to increase the inclusion of under-represented groups, including women, people of color, and socially disadvantaged populations, within our content and among our editorial advisors, reviewers, authors, and contributors.

We encourage authors to use inclusive language that acknowledges diversity, conveys respect to all people, is sensitive to differences, and promotes equal opportunities.

There is a lot to do to address systemic inequalities, but we know that by working together we can support a stronger, more diverse and representative scholarly community of authors, editors, and contributors, and a more diverse and representative content offering.

Accessibility

The European Accessibility Act Wird in neuem Tab/Fenster geöffnet (EAA) (Directive 2019/882) is a European Union directive that aims to improve the accessibility of products and services for people with disabilities and the elderly. Elsevier will be compliant by June 2025 as our teams incorporate accessibility measures including alt text, captions, and transcriptions as required.

An overview of Elsevier’s approach is covered in our Elsevier Statement on the European Accessibility Act.

Use of inclusive language

Inclusive language acknowledges diversity, conveys respect to all people, is sensitive to differences, and promotes equity. Writing needs to be free from bias, stereotypes, slang, reference to dominant culture, and cultural assumptions, while images and case studies should be representative of all populations.

We encourage authors to use inclusive and respectful language without bias against any person, with special attention to avoiding language that negatively portrays or describes any person based on factors such as age, gender, race, ethnicity, culture, sexual orientation, disability, neurodiversity, class, or health condition.

Authors should ensure that writing is free from bias, stereotypes, slang, slurs, reference to dominant culture, and cultural assumptions. We recommend avoiding the use of descriptors that refer to personal attributes unless there is evidentiary-referenced scientific or clinical relevance. In those instances, authors must clarify how terms and definitions used in the referential evidence support the use of selected terms.

These resources are by no means exhaustive or definitive, and therefore for more detailed guidance, please refer to guidance from your Elsevier publishing contact.
