Manuscript writing tips
The Program Resource committee is delighted to receive manuscripts from LWML-Canada members and others. Here are some tips to help you and the committee:
• Each manuscript should be typed and double-spaced. It is easier to review and allows space for comments.
• Quotations of Scripture should be identified as to where they are found and what version or translation of the Bible is being used. If it is a quotation, it should be quoted exactly as found.
• Quotations from published material must have copyright permission in writing from the copyright holder. Name and address of the copyright holder is usually printed on the inside back of the title page.
• When hymns or Christian songs are used it is vital to check if they are in public domain or are copyrighted. If the hymn number is not listed on pages 970-975 of Lutheran Worship, it is public domain and can be used without copyright permission but should be acknowledged. If the number is listed on pages 970-975, the copyright holder's name is printed. Call Concordia Publishing House (CPH) Rights and Permissions Dept. at 1-800-325-0191 and permission will be given or information provided as to where permission can be obtained.
We look forward to receiving your submissions. For an address for submissions, please contact the Vice President for Mission Inspiration (Judy at jkgrande@telus.net).
