“Unlimited submissions?!” You heard right: publishers were invited to submit as many frontlist titles as desired. We know that for some publishers, a smaller limit may be too restrictive.
We loved receiving so many creative submissions last year!
New in 2025: Publisher Feedback on a Rolling Basis
Within the designated submission window, early submissions were gratefully appreciated.
Digital manuscripts will be screened as they are received. Publishers will receive rolling notification about titles that have met the initial screening cut. We invite publishers to send hard-copy manuscripts at that time for consideration by the full committee.
We hope this process will be beneficial for publishers, and we look forward to hearing about your experience at mathical@slmath.org.
