Please consider the following creteria:

  • The title of the article submittd to Jurnal Tapis should reflect a specific focus of study, based on researches--be they library or fieldwork researches--and thus the author can have a general statement and sub-title specifically confining the scope of study.
  • The article submitted should be based on research--be it library or fieldwork or other kinds of researches.
  • The article should present bibliography which entails primary sources--books, manuscripts, interviews, or observation--and updated secondary sources from books or peer reviewed journals.
  • The article should contain an argument/thesis/finding which contribute to scholarly discussion in a field of study which should clearly be mentioned and systematically presented in abstract, content, and conclusion.
  • The article should use good English, or at least can be understood; the author is fully responsible in fixing and editing English; the copy editor of Jurnal Tapis is responsible only for minor typos and understandable grammatical erros.
  • The style and format, including the structure of article, footnotes, bibliography, should follow those of Jurnal Tapis.

NOTE: It is suggested the use of Zotero as reference manager at styling the footnote and the bibliography.
