- Belleten is an international refereed journal and published three times a year in the months of April, August and December. Research articles, translations, book reviews, news about congresses-symposia and necrologies are published in the journal. The articles are required to comply with the universally accepted scholarly criteria, to make new contributions to the field they belong to, and not to be published before. Papers presented in the scholarly meetings can be accepted for evaluation on the condition that they are not published before. The Society will immediately cancel the process of publication of previously published articles if discovered, even if they are accepted by the editorial board on the reports of the referee(s).
- The language of the Belleten is Turkish. If necessary, articles written in widely spoken European languages can also be published.
- In Turkish articles, authors have to comply with the rules set by the TDK (Turkish Language Society) Spelling Guide.
- The application of the articles, prepared according to spelling rules and editorial principles, is made via online publication tracking system [Yayın Takip Sistemi] by signing up on and uploading the articles to https://yaysis.ayk.gov.tr As the process of evaluation and
publication is carried out on the online system, uploaded application files of the article (in PDF or Microsoft Word) should not include the name of the authors/translators.
- If available, pictures, drawings, maps or other documents of the article should be uploaded to the online system (in PDF, JPG, TIFF etc.) during the application. All such materials shall be numbered and explanations for each should be included below them.
- The articles which are sent to the journal must include 3000-10000 words. (Those articles that exceed the limit will be rejected after the preliminary review.)
- The translator of an article must provide permission of the author of the original article through the online system. No copyright fee will be paid to the author of the article.
- In uploading the articles and the translations, in addition to the text itself, Turkish and English abstracts should be added, each of them containing 150-200 words and 5-8 key words. They shall be added to the first page of the article and to the related part of the online system. (Those articles that do not comply with these requirements will be rejected after the preliminary review.)
- The responsibility for the content of the articles and their appendices (pictures, drawings, maps, documents etc.) belongs to the author.
- The preliminary review of the applications is carried out by the experts of the Society, then they are added to the agenda of the Commission of the Periodicals. The Commission evaluates the applications in its meetings. The Commission can decline the application without sending it to the referees; or can send it to at least two referees (or three when necessary) who are expert on the field. (The referees are supposed to review the article in a month. When necessary, it can be extended up to 15 days.) The articles are published upon the reports of the referees and final approval of the Commission. The Commission can decide to publish the writings on necrology, symposium-congress news and book reviews without sending them to the referees.
- The Commission of the Periodicals can make changes and revisions on the spelling of the articles.
- Articles forwarded to the authors for correction on the basis of the reports of referees must be revised and sent back to the Society via the online system within a month.
- Articles that are not accepted for publication are returned back to their authors together with the reports of the referees via the online system.
- The copyright fees will be paid to the authors on the basis of The Regulations of Copyright, Publishing and Selling of the Atatürk Supreme Council of Culture, Language and History
