Reviewer guidelines
Peer review is essential scholarly communication. Treat manuscripts as confidential; do not share files or discuss content outside the editorial process. Declare conflicts of interest (same institution, recent co-authorship, financial or personal ties) before accepting. If you lack expertise or cannot meet the deadline, decline promptly. Assess originality, methods, clarity, ethics, and contribution to library and information science. Be objective and constructive — personal criticism of authors is inappropriate. Recommend accept, minor revisions, major revisions, or reject, with comments for authors and confidential notes for editors.
