This short video was designed to help academic authors who are interested in submitting a paper to the diamond open access journal Information Research (https://publicera.kb.se/ir) to apply the journal's template to their text before submission. This video serves to familiarise authors with the basics of this process. A PDF version with more elaborate instructions and examples of how to deal with more complex content is linked on our pages with Instructions for Authors.

Please note that using this template is a requirement for consideration by the journal, as submissions that do not apply the template are desk rejected by default, with an invitation to resubmit.

This video was developed by Xin Chen, as part of her internship at Information Research in November/December 2025, which she completed as part of the Internship Course she took in the MA Programme in Digital Humanities at Uppsala University (Sweden).
