Publication Etichis

To maintain the quality of manuscripts and avoid publishing violations/plagiarism in the publication process, the editorial board establishes the JEDUCHI-ISC (Journal of Educational Management and Educational Technology) scientific publication ethics. This publication ethics rule applies to authors, editors, peer-reviewers, and journal/ editorial management. The publication ethics refers to the scientific publication ethics regulations established by the COPE (Committee on Publications Ethic) standard.


Author Ethics
Reporting; authors must provide information about the process and results of their research to the editorial board honestly, clearly, and thoroughly while keeping their research data safe and secure.


Originality and plagiarism; authors must ensure that the manuscript submitted to the editorial board is original, written by themselves, sourced from their ideas and thoughts, and not copied from other people's written works or ideas. Authors are strictly prohibited from renaming the cited reference sources to other people's names.


Repeated submission; authors must inform that the manuscript submitted to the editorial board has not been submitted to another journal/publisher. If redundancy in manuscript submission to another publisher is found, the editorial board will reject the submitted manuscript.

Author status; authors must inform the editorial board that they have the competence or qualifications in a specific field of expertise relevant to the publication, which is library science. The author who submits the manuscript to the editorial board is the first author (co-author) so that if there are any problems in the manuscript publishing process, they can be resolved immediately.


Errors in manuscript writing; authors must inform the editorial board immediately if errors are found in manuscript writing, whether in the review or edit results. These writing errors include the writing of names, affiliations/institutions, quotations, and other writing that can reduce the meaning and substance of the manuscript. If this happens, the author must immediately propose to improve the manuscript.


Disclosure of conflicts of interest; authors must understand the above scientific publication ethics to avoid conflicts of interest with other parties so that the manuscript can be processed smoothly and safely.
Withdrawal of Manuscripts; authors are not allowed to withdraw the manuscript that has been submitted to JEDUCHI-ISC (Journal of Educational Management and Educational Technology). This is because withdrawing the manuscript wastes a lot of time, energy, and the process that has been sent to the publisher.
Retraction of Manuscripts. The manuscripts that have been published by JEDUCHI-ISC (Journal of Educational Management and Educational Technology) will be considered based on the Editorial Board's decision if they violate the publication ethics regulations, including (a) clear evidence of data falsification, (b) clear evidence that the manuscript has been previously published in other publishers, (c) clear evidence of plagiarism, taking other people's works and so on from other people, making it appear as if the work belongs to them. (d) Research that violates norms and ethics. Retracting manuscripts will publish a Corrigendum.

Editorial Ethics

Publication decision: The editor must ensure a thorough, transparent, objective, fair, and wise review process of the manuscript. This forms the basis for the editor's decision to accept or reject a manuscript. In this regard, the editorial board serves as a manuscript selection team.

  1. Publication information: The editor must ensure that the manuscript writing guidelines for authors and interested parties are accessible and clearly readable, both in print and electronic versions.
  2. Peer-review manuscript allocation: The editor must ensure that the reviewer and the manuscript for review, as well as the review process provisions and procedures, are clearly communicated to the reviewer.
  3. Objectivity and neutrality: The editor must be objective, neutral, and honest in editing the manuscript, without discrimination based on gender, business affiliation, ethnicity, religion, race, inter-group, or author's nationality.
  4. Confidentiality: The editor must safeguard all information, especially those related to the author's privacy and manuscript distribution.
  5. Disclosure of conflicts of interest: The editor must understand the scientific publication ethics above to avoid conflicts of interest with other parties, thus ensuring a smooth and safe manuscript publishing process.

Reviewer Ethics

  1. Objectivity and neutrality: The reviewer must be honest, objective, unbiased, independent, and only focused on scientific truth. The manuscript review process is carried out professionally, without discrimination based on gender, business affiliation, ethnicity, religion, race, inter-group, or author's nationality.
  2. Clarity of reference sources: The reviewer must ensure that the manuscript's reference/citation sources are appropriate and credible (accountable). If errors or deviations are found in writing reference/citation sources, the reviewer must immediately inform the editorial team for correction by the author in accordance with the reviewer's notes.
  3. Peer-review effectiveness: The reviewer must respond to the manuscript sent by the editorial team and work according to the manuscript review time set (maximum of 2 weeks). If additional time is needed in the manuscript review, the reviewer must immediately report (confirmation) to the editorial secretariat.
  4. Disclosure of conflicts of interest: The reviewer must understand the scientific publication ethics above to avoid conflicts of interest with other parties, thus ensuring a smooth and safe manuscript publishing process.

Journal Management Ethics

  1. Decision-making: Journal management/editorial board must outline the organization's mission and goals, particularly related to policy-making and journal publishing decisions without any specific interests.
  2. Freedom: Journal management must provide freedom to reviewers and editors to create a comfortable working atmosphere and respect the author's privacy.
  3. Guarantee and promotion: Journal management must guarantee and protect intellectual property rights (copyrights) and be transparent in managing funds received by third parties. Additionally, the journal management must publish and promote the published works to the community by providing guarantees of usability in the use of the manuscript.
  4. Disclosure of conflicts of interest: Journal management must understand the scientific publication ethics above to avoid conflicts of interest with other parties, thus ensuring a smooth and safe manuscript publishing process.
