The manuscripts submitted to the JBLC are evaluated through a double-blind referee system. The editor reserves the right, upon the approval of the Editorial Board, to choose not to send manuscripts to referees and reject submission on the grounds of inappropriate subject matter, quality, length and major noncompliance with the designated submission requirements. Submissions that are deemed appropriate are sent to two anoymous referees, and in the case of persistent disagreement between the first two referees, the review of a third referee is asked, after which the Editorial Board makes the final decision considering all three reviews.
