Manuscript Editing for Online Journal of Rural Nursing and Health Care Articles
The Online Journal of Rural Nursing and Health Care is the official peer-reviewed, open-access publication of the Rural Nurse Organization. It is dedicated to the health and well-being of rural populations worldwide. Its articles address clinical practice, education, policy, program evaluation, and rural health research. Binghamton University Libraries host the journal and provide editorial support, and it appears twice a year. Its editor-in-chief is at the Decker College of Nursing and Health Sciences at Binghamton University.
The journal accepts Research Articles, Review or Theory Articles, and Quality Improvement Projects, with Columns by invitation of the Editorial Board. Research articles and literature reviews run about 20 double-spaced pages, and other manuscripts about 12. Both counts exclude the title page, abstract, tables, and references. References follow the APA Publication Manual, 7th edition, with DOIs where available and no footnotes or endnotes. The structured abstract runs up to 300 words. Authors enter the abstract and keywords in the submission system, separate from the manuscript file. Each paper defines rural clearly and keeps its rural focus throughout. At least one author belongs to the Rural Nurse Organization at review and publication. Body text is 12-point Times New Roman, and every figure carries alt text. Review is double-blind, with two reviewers and a third when their opinions conflict. Submissions go through the journal's online submission system as Word files.
