Tolkien Studies seeks works of scholarly quality and depth. Substantial essays and shorter, “Notes and Documents” pieces are both welcome.

Submissions should be double-spaced throughout and use parenthetical citations in the (Author page) form.  A Works Cited page should conform to the Chicago Manual of Style, 14th ed.  All citations to Tolkien’s works should follow the “Conventions and Abbreviations” of Tolkien Studies.

Electronic submissions should be sent to Yvette Kisor (ykisor@ramapo.edu) as attachments. Microsoft Word is the preferred word-processing program. Mailed, hard copy submissions are no longer accepted. 

Tolkien Studies encourages researchers to send us offprints of articles for inclusion in the yearly Bibliography and Year’s Work. These should be sent to:
