The Scientific Journal of the University of Benghazi
The OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF BENGHAZI
GUIDE FOR AUTHORS
INTRODUCTION:
The Scientific Journal of the University of Benghazi (SJUOB) is a multi-displinary journal, owned by the University of Benghazi. The SJOUB has three sections; Humanities, Science and Medicine.
Submitted manuscripts must pertain to these three specialities (Humanities, Science and Medicine.) Additionally, manuscripts submitted for publication must be submitted solely to SJUOB. They must not be submitted for consideration elsewhere or be published elsewhere.
Disclaimer: The statements, opinions, and advertisements in the SJUOB are exclusively those of the individual authors, contributors, editors, or advertisers, as indicated.
Before you submit your manuscript for the consideration of the SJOUB, please read the following carefully.
By submitting an article to the SJOUB, authors indicate that the work has not been previously published (except in the form of an abstract, a published lecture or academic thesis). Submission also implies that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, that its publication is approved by all authors and implicitly or explicitly by the responsible authorities where the work was conducted, and that, if accepted, it will not be published in any other place in the same form, in English or translated into any other language, including electronically without first obtaining the written consent of the copyright holder. To confirm originality, submitted articles may be checked by an originality detection service.
For transparency, we advise authors to submit an author statement file which outlines their individual contributions to the paper using the relevant credit roles:
Authorship statements should be formatted with the names of authors first and followed by their credit role(s).
Authors are expected to carefully prepare the list and order of authors before submitting their manuscript and to provide the final and confirmed list of authors at the time of the original submission. Any addition, deletion or rearrangement of author names in the authorship list should be made only before the manuscript has been accepted and only if approved by the journal editor.
To request such a change, the editor must receive the following from the corresponding author: written confirmation (e-mail, letter) from all authors that they agree with the addition, removal or rearrangement. In the case of addition or removal of authors, this includes confirmation from the author being added or removed. It must be noted that only in exceptional circumstances will the editor consider the addition, deletion or rearrangement of authors after the manuscript has been accepted.
When an article has been accepted, authors will be asked to complete a 'Journal Publishing Agreement'. An e-mail will be sent to the corresponding author confirming receipt of the manuscript together with a 'Journal Publishing Agreement' form or a link to the online version of this agreement. Subscribers may reproduce tables of contents or prepare lists of articles including abstracts for internal circulation within their institutions. Permission of the publisher is needed for resale or distribution outside the institution and for all other derivative works, including compilations and translations. If excerpts from other copyrighted works are included, the author(s) must obtain written permission from the copyright owners and credit the source(s) in the article.

Figures: All figures should be planned to fit within either 1 column width (8.0 cm), 1.5 column widths (13.0 cm) or 2 column widths (17.0 cm), and must be suitable for photocopy reproduction from the printed version of the manuscript. Lettering on figures should be in a clear, sans serif typeface (e.g. Helvetica); if possible, the same typeface should be used for all figures in a paper. After reduction for publication, upper-case text and numbers should be at least 1.5-2.0 mm high (10 point Helvetica). After reduction, symbols should be at least 2.0-3.0 mm high (10 points). All half-tone photographs should be submitted at the final reproduction size. In general, multi-part figures should be arranged as they would appear in the final version. Reduction to the scale that will be used on the page is not necessary, but any special requirements (such as the separation distance of stereo pairs) should be clearly specified.
Unnecessary figures and parts (panels) of figures should be avoided: data presented in small tables or histograms, for instance, can generally be stated briefly in the text instead. Figures should not contain more than one panel unless the parts are logically connected; each panel of a multipart figure should be sized so that the whole figure can be reduced by the same amount and reproduced on the printed page at the smallest size at which essential details are visible.
Figures should be on a white background and should avoid excessive boxing, unnecessary color, shading, and/or decorative effects (e.g. 3-dimensional skyscraper histograms), and highly pixelated computer drawings. The vertical axis of histograms should not be truncated to exaggerate small differences. The line spacing should be wide enough to remain clear on reduction to the minimum acceptable printed size.
Figures divided into parts should be labeled with a lower-case, boldface, roman letter, a, b, and so on, in the same type size as used elsewhere in the figure. Lettering in figures should be in lower-case type, with the first letter capitalized. Units should have a single space between the number and the unit and follow SI nomenclature or the nomenclature common to a particular field. Thousands should be separated by a thin space (1 000). Unusual units or abbreviations should be spelled out in full or defined in the legend. Scale bars should be used rather than magnification factors, with the length of the bar defined in the legend rather than on the bar itself. In general, visual cues (on the figures themselves) are preferred to verbal explanations in the legend (e.g. broken lines, open red triangles, etc.)
Figure legends: Figure legends should begin with a brief title for the whole figure and continue with a short description of each panel and the symbols used; they should not contain any details of methods.
Our online submission system guides you through the process of entering your article details and uploading your files. The system converts your article files to a single PDF file used in the peer-review process. Editable files are required to typeset your article for final publication.
