Each author is advised to thoroughly read through the manuscript before sending it to the editor for the first time so as to detect and correct obvious errors. Manuscripts that are full of errors would be returned to the author(s) for corrections or rejected.

Manuscripts submitted for publication are subjected to pre-selection screening to ascertain which articles meet the minimum standards and interest of LAJRAH. Articles that meet the standards are sent for blind peer-reviews by experts in the academic field which the article covers. Reports of each stage of the peer-review process are sent back to the author(s) to correct and return. LAJRAH's peer-review process is rigorous and takes time. Authors are therefore advised to send in their papers on time.

more than one author, the complimentary copy is given to the lead author while the rest, either pay for extra printed copies or download it online.
