Publication Frequency and Article Roll-Out Policy
Jurnal Studi Al-Qur'an (JSQ)
1. Fixed Biannual Issues
Jurnal Studi Al-Qur'an (JSQ) is published in two numbered issues per year, forming one annual volume:
- Issue 1: January – June
- Issue 2: July – December
2. Article Publication Timeline
Articles are published online on a rolling basis throughout each issue's six-month period, immediately upon the completion of the final editorial process.
| Issue | Coverage Period | Publication Window | Process |
|---|---|---|---|
| Issue 1 | Jan – Jun | Starts January | Accepted articles begin release in Jan. New articles added until June. |
| Issue 2 | Jul – Dec | Starts July | Accepted articles begin release in Jul. New articles added until Dec. |
3. Key Implications
This rolling publication model offers several advantages for authors and the journal's workflow:
- An article that completes its review and final editing in, for example, March, will be published immediately at that time and will be part of Issue 1.
- An article finalized in October will be published immediately and will be part of Issue 2.
- There is no single "release day" for an entire issue; the table of contents is built incrementally over the six-month period.
- This ensures rapid dissemination of research while maintaining a clear, biannual issue structure for citation and archiving purposes.
