Introduction
Springer Nature is an Education and Research brand that publishes under the imprints of Springer, Palgrave Macmillan, Macmillan Education, and APress among others. Publishing a book is a joint effort between you and Springer Nature. We feel it is important that our authors concentrate on the content of the chapter or a book. When writing a book for Springer Nature, please do not be concerned with the final layout. That is Springer Nature’s role.
To ensure that we always keep pace with all current online and print requirements, Springer Nature structures the content in XML as the basis for presentation in print or in digital formats for such devices as Amazon Kindle™, Apple iPad™/iPhone™, and Google Android™. We utilize standard layouts with style specifications suitable for multiple display formats.
What advantages do these provide for you in manuscript preparation? It means you can focus on the content and Springer Nature will professionally prepare your book with underlying XML structuring, in such a way that ensures your content becomes not only a professionally typeset printed work but is also available to readers in numerous formats for many years to come (e.g. online eBook).
Where not otherwise stated these guidelines apply to monographs and edited books alike.
Manuscript Preparation Tools for Word and LaTeX
If you are using Microsoft Word to prepare your manuscript, you do not need to use any special tool for preparation. Please just ensure that the document is clearly structured visually, (e.g. using heading styles, lists, footnotes, etc.). We also provide a Manuscript preparation tool for Word.
For LaTeX users, Springer Nature provides a manuscript preparation tool that helps structure the manuscript (e.g., define the heading hierarchy). Predefined style formats are available for all the necessary structures that are supposed to be part of the manuscript, and these formats can be quickly accessed via hotkeys or special toolbars.
Note: This tool is not intended for the preparation of the final page layout. The final layout will be created by Springer Nature according to our layout specifications.
LaTeX2e macro packages for monographs and for contributed books
Use of this tool is not mandatory. Alternatively, you may either use a blank Word document or the standard LaTeX book class (for monographs) or article class (for individual contributions) and apply the default settings and styles (e.g., for heading styles, lists, footnotes, etc.). For Springer Conference Proceedings preparation guidelines click here.
Permissions If excerpts from copyrighted works (including websites), such as photos, illustrations, tables, animations, videos, or text quotations are included in the manuscript, it is the author’s responsibility to obtain permission from the copyright holder (and where required also from
recognizable persons in photos) for both the print and online format, unless they can be used without permission under a copyright exception. We require “nonexclusive world rights in all languages for all media and all editions of your work, including advertising, publicity, and promotional materials for the book.”
Please comply with the instructions stipulated in the permission(s) concerning acknowledgements or credit lines within your manuscript (e.g., reference to the copyright holder in captions) and keep the written confirmation of the permission in your possession with the copy of your manuscript. Please be aware that some publishers do not always grant right of reproduction for free. Springer Nature will not be able to refund any costs that may have been incurred in receiving these permissions. As an alternative, material from other sources should be used. Start the permissions process as soon as you can. It is Springer Nature policy to accept manuscripts for Production only where permissions have been granted. If you have questions about what may or may not require permission, please speak to your Editor. In order to give sufficient time for all clearances to be obtained, the permissions application process should be started at least 3 months in advance of the final manuscript delivery date.

Links to Web Pages
Under current law, there is a risk that the author and the publisher will be held liable if a web page to which there is a link in the author’s work contains content that infringes copyright (e.g. images or texts for which the rights were not clarified in a proper manner). In order to reduce this risk, the following measures should be taken if you include links in your work:
Please only link to trustworthy websites (e.g. websites of renowned publishers, scientific societies, well-known companies and associations, Springer Nature websites).
Please do not link to user-generated content and other “unprofessional” websites, for which it is unlikely that the content has undergone adequate rights checks.
If possible, please link to specific subpages or items (images, charts, etc.) in order to reduce possible liability.
Foreword (optional)
If you intend to include a foreword, please submit it with the manuscript. A foreword is usually written by an authority on the subject, and serves as a recommendation of the book. If it is a contributed foreword, the name of the foreword’s contributor is always given at the end; affiliations and titles are generally not included, but the date and place of writing may be.
Preface (optional)
A preface should not contain a reference list. An introduction to the subject of the book should not be confused with a preface. A preface concerns the book itself (e.g., why it is important, why it was written), while an introduction presents the subject matter of the book. The introduction does not belong in the front matter, but should appear as the first chapter of the book.
Acknowledgments (optional)
Acknowledgments of support or assistance in preparing the book can be included as the last paragraph(s) of the preface. If the acknowledgment is more than one page long, it should start on a separate page under the heading: Acknowledgments.
Authors must disclose all relationships or interests that could have direct or potential influence or impart bias on the work. Acknowledgments related to the complete book should be included at the end or after the Preface. Acknowledgments related to individual chapters should be included at the end of the individual chapters before the Reference section.
About This Book/Conference (optional)
For conference titles, this section describes the conference (aims, duration, participants, organization etc.). Describes the structure/content of the book (parts, main focus of certain chapters/groups of chapters).
Describes any didactic elements–their importance, reasons for their use, methodology.
Table of Contents
Front matter material is not listed in the table of contents. List all parts, chapters, and back matter material (e.g., an index) in the final sequence. If your chapters are numbered, use Arabic numerals and number the chapters consecutively throughout the book (Chapter 1, Chapter 2, etc.), i.e., do not start anew with each part. The introductory chapter must be listed as Chapter 1, if your chapters are numbered. Please do not use subchapters. In authored books we present two heading levels under the main chapter titles. In Edited books, we present the chapter titles and the chapter author names. If there are parts, use Roman numerals for parts (Part I, Part II, etc.). Parts consist of a short title and can contain a short introductory text (optional). Please do not use subparts.
About the Author (optional)
A brief biography including institutional affiliations, other written works, and accomplishments.
List of Contributors (contributed volumes only; optional)
Editors should include a “List of Contributors” section in which each contributor is listed (can be listed alphabetically) with each contributor’s affiliation and/or profession. Please ensure that the List of Contributors is up to date and confirmed by each contributor. Please decide if given names should be written in full or abbreviated to initials. Please be consistent. Except for certain subject areas, contributors’ short biographies can appear at the end of each corresponding chapter. Please consult your editor for further details. If contributor bios are desired, they can be included at the end of each chapter.
List of Abbreviations (optional)
A list of abbreviations and/or symbols may be very helpful if numerous abbreviations and special symbols are scattered throughout the text.
List of Figures and/or Tables (optional)
A List of Figures can be generated if non-keyed material is provided with the manuscript handover. Non-keyed material may include items such as figures, illustrations, and maps. A separate List of Tables can be generated if tables are provided. Individual items will be labeled according to chapter number and sequence (e.g., Fig. 1.1 will be the first figure in chapter 1; Fig. 1.2 will be the second figure in chapter 1, etc.).
Abstracts
Chapter abstracts are strongly encouraged. These will appear online at SpringerLink and other sites and will be available with unrestricted access to facilitate online searching (using e.g., Google) and allow unregistered users to read the abstract as a teaser for the complete chapter. Begin each chapter with an abstract that summarizes the content of the chapter in no more than 200 words. If no abstract is submitted the first paragraph of the chapter will be used instead. Please note that abstracts will not always appear in the print version of the book. For further details, please consult your editor.
Boxes
Do not set entire pages as boxes, because this affects online readability. For additional text elements for professional and text books such as examples, questions or exercises, summaries or key messages, please use a consistent style for each of these elements and submit a list of the styles used together with your manuscript. For LaTeX users please use the Springer Nature macro package to highlight these elements.
Equations and Program Code
In Word, use the Math function, MathType, or Microsoft Equation Editor to create your equations. Please don’t include the equations as images.
In LaTeX, use the Math environment to create your equations.
Spelling and Punctuation
Edited books: Use American or British spelling and punctuation consistently within a chapter (for example, behavior/behaviour) except for quoted material. In works dealing with foreign languages, especially those with alphabets different from English, it is wise to decide on the spelling or transliteration style of names and words at the outset and to include your preferences in your list of stylistic decisions. Italicize foreign words and phrases—for example, barranca (steep bank)—unless they are proper nouns or words that are familiar in the American lexicon—for example, Moscow (Moskva). It is up to you to verify that the spelling of foreign words is correct; this is beyond the copyeditor’s purview. Centuries should be written out in full (e.g., eighteenth century). Decades may be written out or written as numerals (e.g., the seventies or the 1970s), but be consistent with the style that you choose.
Tables
Give each table a caption. Add a reference citation to the table source at the end of the caption, if necessary. Number tables consecutively using the chapter number (e.g. Table 1.1 for the first table in Chap. 1) and ensure that all tables are cited in the text in sequential order. Do not write “the following table”. Use the table function to create and format tables. Do not use the space bar or multiple tabs to separate columns and do not use Excel to create tables as this can cause problems when converting your tables into the typesetting program and other formats.
Figures and Illustrations
Numbering
Number the figures chapter-wise using the chapter number (e.g., Fig. 1.1 for the first figure in Chap. 1) and ensure that all figures are cited in the text in sequential order. Do not write “the following figure”.
Figure Captions Give each figure a concise caption, describing accurately what the figure depicts. Include the captions in the text file, usually close to the citation, not in the figure file. Identify all elements found in the figure in the figure caption and use boxes, circles, etc. as coordinate points in graphs instead of color lines. If a figure is reproduced from a previous publication, include the source as the last item in the caption.
Figure and Illustration Files A figure is an object that is drawn or photographed. It does not consist solely of characters and thus cannot be keyed. Do not submit tabular material as figures. Graphics and diagrams should be saved as EPS files with the fonts embedded. Microsoft Office files (Excel or PowerPoint) can be submitted in the original format (xls, xlsx, ppt, pptx). Scanned graphics in TIFF format should have a minimum resolution of 1200 dpi. Photos or drawings with fine shading should be saved as TIFF with a minimum resolution of 300 dpi. Ensure that all the figure lettering is clearly readable – optimum size 8-12 points. A combination of halftone and line art (e.g., photos containing line drawings or extensive lettering, color diagrams, etc.) should be saved as TIFF with a minimum resolution of 600 dpi.
Electronic Supplementary Material
Electronic Supplementary Material (ESM) is electronic material that is published online on SpringerLink, but that will not appear as a part of the printed book. Please check with your Editor if ESM is suitable for your publication.
Submission Supply all supplementary material in standard file formats. Please include the following information in each file: chapter title, book title, author/editor names; affiliation and e-mail address of the corresponding author. To ensure that your readers can access the material easily, please keep in mind that large files may require very long download times.
Video Files Maximum file size: 25 GB
Minimum video duration: 1 sec Video codec:H.264, profile: "High" or at least "Extended" 1280 x 720 (HDready, 720p)
Resolution: At least 480p If no HD is available: 1024 x 576 (PAL 16:9) or 768 x 576 (PAL 4:3)
Video bitrate: 5.000 to 8.000 Kbit/s Audio bitrate: 320 Kbit/s, stereo, 44,1 KHz
By name of cited author and year of publication: o One author: (Miller 1991) or Miller (1991). o Two authors: (Miller and Smith 1994) or Miller and Smith (1994). o Three authors or more: (Miller et al. 1995) or Miller et al. (1995). By number, whether sequential by order of citation or according to the sequence in an alphabetized list: o Single citation: [9]. o Multiple citation: [4–6, 9]. The citations should be in numerical order. o Sequential citation by order of citation: reference 7 cannot be cited before reference 5, for example. Any pages, figures etc. referred to specifically should be given in the text with the citations, as in these examples: o (see p. 43 in [9]) or [9, p. 43]. o (see Fig. 4 in Smith and Jones 1997) or (Smith and Jones 1997, Fig. 4) or Smith and Jones (1997, Fig. 4).
Only one form of citation is permitted within a publication.
We strongly prefer the use of author/date or numbered citations in the text with a chapter-end reference list, since this offers more advantages for the reader of the electronic forms of publication. The Notes and Bibliography system is possible if strongly desired in certain subjects. In this case, put the citation information in footnotes within the chapters and provide a book-end bibliography. The reference information appears as text only, without any linking to the book-end bibliography or structured to capture and register citations with reference-linking organizations.
Reference Lists Include a reference list at the end of each chapter so that readers of single chapters of the eBook can make full use of the citations. References at the end of the book cannot be linked to citations in the chapters. Please do not include reference lists at the end of a chapter section, at the end of a book part, in a preface or in an appendix. Include all works that are cited in the chapter and that have been published (including on the Internet) or accepted for publication. Please add the access date in references to web pages. Personal communications and unpublished works should be mentioned in the text only. Entries in the list must be in alphabetical order except in the numbered system of sequential citation. The rules for alphabetization are: o First, all works by the author alone, ordered chronologically by year of publication. o Next, all works by the author with a coauthor, ordered alphabetically by coauthor. o Finally, all works by the author with several coauthors, ordered chronologically by year of publication.
Reference Styles Springer Nature follows certain standards with regard to the presentation of the reference list. They are based on reference styles that were established for various disciplines in the past and have been adjusted to facilitate automated processing and citation linking. This allows us, for example, to easily cross link the cited references with the original publication. References will be revised in production in accordance with these house styles.
Choose the appropriate style for your subject from the list below. Please note that the adapted and standardized forms are based on, but differ slightly from, certain recommended styles (e.g., APA, Chicago).

Final Check and Submission
Ensure that the files are complete (no missing information or chapters still to come) and that the agreed-upon length is accurate. Check the table of contents for the correct sequence of part, chapter and heading numbering and update the chapter titles and subheadings if necessary. Save each chapter or contribution, including the accompanying references, figure legends, and tables, in a separate file in the original source file format and give each file your name and the chapter number (e.g., Myers-Chap 1). Save the original figure files separately and name them with your name, the chapter, and figure number (e.g., Myers-Fig 1.1). Ensure all third-party permissions have been obtained. For contributed volumes, ensure that all signed Consent to Publish forms are enclosed in a separate folder. A Consent to Publish form is also required for the foreword of both authored and edited works. Details of the chapter authors (sequence, names, affiliations and name and affiliation of corresponding author) given in the manuscript should be complete, final and correspond to the details given in the Consent to Publish forms. In principle we don't accept changes during production or in the proof stage. Submit the source files of your manuscript together with a PDF file of the final version, ideally with all fonts embedded, that can be used as a reference. This is especially important if text or figures contain special characters or unusual fonts. Please check the PDF to ensure that text and figures appear correctly. All content is final upon submission.
