1. Manuscripts should be submitted by mail to the Managing Editor, The Journal of Energy and Development, 850 Willowbrook Road, Boulder, Colorado 80302. Manuscripts also can be sent as an attachment to an email to iceed@Colorado.edu; however, such electronic submissions must be followed by two typewritten (double-spaced) hard copies. We can accept computer disks with the text portion formatted in Microsoft Word 2003 (or lower) or WordPerfect Office 11 (or lower). Graphs and figures should not be “pictures”; rather, they must be editable and in black and white or grayscale—including data points where applicable—and saved as a file in Microsoft Excel 2003 (or lower) or Microsoft PowerPoint. Furthermore, it is important to provide have a source for all submitted data and the publication if previously published elsewhere.
2. Your manuscript must use our documentation style. Do not use the parenthetical form in the text. Explanatory information about the manuscript, such as research done under the auspices of a grant, agency, or institution, should be noted by an asterisk (*) after the title. Thereafter, the endnotes in the text should be denoted by consecutive numbers shown as superscript. Similarly, the corresponding number should be indented and shown in superscript before the endnote itself. It is preferred, but not necessary, that endnotes be typed (double-spaced) at the end of the manuscript’s text rather than at the bottom of the page on which the citation appears in the text. Endnote information and style include:
a. Article citation: Author’s name; article title in quotation marks; journal title in full (underlined or italics); month (or season, e.g., fall, summer) and year of issue rather than volume and issue number; page numbers when applicable. If the article appears in a government publication or proceedings of a conference, this information should be inserted in parentheses. For example:
1Jonathan Houghton, “Should OPEC Use Dollars in Pricing Oil?,” The Journal of Energy and Development, spring 1989, pp. 193-94.
b. Book citation: Author’s name; book title (underlined or italics); city of publication; publisher; year of publication; page number or numbers where applicable. For example:
2Rondo Cameron, A Precise Economic History of the World (Cambridge, United Kingdom: Cambridge University Press, 1989), p. 187.
c. Other endnote citations: For a chapter in an edited book give the author’s name, chapter title in quotation marks, title of book (underlined or italics), name of editor, city of publication, publisher, year of publication, page number or numbers where applicable; see the example below. If the book is in a series, give that information; if translated, give name of translator; note if a dissertation or thesis, giving the name of university where the work was submitted. If the citation includes web/electronic citations, the date the site was accessed should be included, if at all possible, in the citation. Some web sites keep information archived for a long time, others seem to remove items, so giving the date accessed is important unless its a government document or something by BP /Statistical Review of Energy/.

d. For a second reference to the same work: Repeat the author’s name; op. cit. can be used if only one work by that author is cited throughout the article (see example). If more than one publication by the same author is cited, then give the author’s name and title of work for each citation.
