Information for authors
This should be read in combination with our publishing policies.
Article structure
Articles should not normally exceed 8000 words for the main paper; the notes are not included in the word count.
Recollections articles or short reports about noteworthy primary sources should be between 1000 and 5000 words (typically 3000 words) including no more than six figures and in the same format as a normal article without sections. Each article should contain the following in order:
Short title for page headings (maximum 50 characters, including spaces)
Title
Authors' names and full addresses where their work was carried out. The corresponding author must provide an email address. (This is applicable only for accepted papers. New submissions should not contain author names or affiliations as we operate a double blind peer-review system).
Summary of no more than 200 words
Three to six key words or phrases
Main body of the work, divided into sections and described by short headings. Recollections articles should not be divided into sections
Acknowledgements (if necessary)Please do not put the acknowledgements in the first footnote, but in a separate section
Appendices (if necessary)
Notes section. The notes section should also contain all articles cited in the text
Figure captions (numbered in sequence as they appear in the text)
The summary (abstract) should be concise and informative. It should indicate the general scope of the article and state the main results and conclusions. It should be complete by itself, and must not contain footnotes or references or unexplained abbreviations. Because all papers are behind a subscription wall, and the abstract is made visible, the abstract should not contain any links to content behind the wall. Notes and Records also publishes Reports, or shorter informative articles on matters of interest to historians of science. A Report should be no more than 3000 words in length. Any references should be given following the guidelines for a Notes and Records research paper. Authors should also provide an abstract of no more than 150 words.
In addition to providing the addresses where the work was carried out, the current addresses, where different, should be given.
Notes and references
Notes should be typed separately from the main body of the manuscript. The Notes are printed at the foot of each page in numerical order, reference being made in the text by the use of superscript numbers. Avoid using note indicators in the middle of sentences unless it is absolutely essential for clarity.
All publications cited in the text should be referenced in the Notes section. A complete reference should provide the reader with enough information to locate the article, book or manuscript.
Books
Author's name; please follow the author’s style for use of initials or first name
Title of book (italic)
Edition, chapter or page ranges
Editor(s) if applicable
If book was from an e-book library, indicate the name of the e-library
Publisher's details in brackets (publisher, place, year of publication)
Journal articles
References to articles in journals should include author name(s), title of paper, abbreviated title of the journal, volume number in bold, first and last pages of article, and year of publication (in brackets). Selected page ranges within the reference go at the end, preceded by ‘at’.
Widely recognized abbreviations for journals should be used. If in doubt, give the full title of the journal.
Manuscripts
Author of manuscript
Title of manuscript. If the title is not in English, please provide the original title with diacritics, and then provide an English translation in square brackets.
Date of manuscript
Manuscript shelfmark

Abbreviations and contractions
A full stop should be used after abbreviations (Phil. Trans.; ed.) but not after contractions (edn, eds).
Capitalization
Use minimum capitals for modern titles. Historic works (pre-1800) have capitalization following the original version.
Dates
If using the Old Style for English dates between 1 January and 24 March, please indicate this as ‘15 February 1623/4’. Where both Old Style and New Style dating has been used, it is helpful to indicate the difference.
Tables
Tables, however small, should be numbered and referred to in the text by their numbers. Table captions should be brief.
Colour
Colour is only reproduced in Notes and Records under the instruction of the Editor, though we publish colour online at no cost.
Electronic file format
Microsoft Word is the preferred format for submission final submission. Memoirs prepared using other word processing packages should be saved in Rich Text Format (RTF). TeX files are also acceptable. For non-TeX articles, the use of MathType™ for the setting of mathematics is encouraged.
Figures
Figures should be numbered in Arabic numbers and cited in the text by their numbers. All Royal Society journals require figures in electronic format. To ensure high-quality reproduction, and to prevent delays in publication, it is essential that figures be supplied in the correct format. Hand-drawn illustrations are not acceptable.
Permissions
All authors must ensure that all necessary permissions have been obtained for reproducing any other copyright material, including permission to reproduce and publish electronically anywhere in the world.
Figures from other sources should be fully acknowledged in the caption, and written permission sought for both print and electronic reproduction before being used. It is the author’s responsibility to obtain permission to use copyright material.
Figures reproduced under copyright restrictions from another publication should carry a line of acknowledgement, as specified by the copyright holder.
Spelling
Spelling should conform to the preferred spelling of the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary.
Units and abbreviations
As far as possible the recommendations based on the International System of Units (SI) contained in Quantities, units and symbols (The Royal Society, 1975, price £3.50, available from the Sales Office on +44 (0)20 7451 2645). Abbreviations should be given in full at the first mention.
Open access option
We provide an open access option. This is an 'author-pays' model which enables authors to publish in our subscription-based journals on an open access basis. It operates alongside our established subscription model which takes into account open access income. Under the open access option submission of an article is free, but if it is accepted for publication, the authors are asked to pay a fee to have their article made open access immediately upon publication. Please visit our open access page for more information.
Publishing licences
As a condition of submission, we ask authors to agree to the terms and conditions set out in our licence to publish. Authors submitting to Notes and Records will be asked to agree to our standard licence by default. If and when an author chooses to publish their paper as open access, they are asked to agree to the open access licence.
Publishing ethics and other policies
Authors, editors and referees are asked to comply with our publishing policies.
Electronic supplementary material
We can place electronic supplementary material (ESM) onto our website, which may include, for example, data sets, technical details etc. However, the main report, published in the printed journal, should stand on its own merit. Note that ESMs are created by the authors themselves and are NOT edited by the Royal Society. Authors should submit ESMs as supporting files with their submission through Manuscript Central, including titles and descriptions in the submission form. There is a size limit of 10MB for ESMs, which is a limit for the total material, not per file.
Language polishing and author resources
Authors who believe their manuscripts would benefit from professional editing prior to submission are encouraged to use a language polishing service.
AuthorAid hosts a variety of useful resources to help researchers prepare articles for publication.
