Journal History

Jurnal Laboratorium Khatulistiwa (JLK) is committed to continuously improving its publication quality, editorial standards, and compliance with international best practices in scholarly publishing.

As part of this commitment, starting from the 2025 publication year, JLK has implemented several important updates:

  • Revised Manuscript Template
    The journal has introduced a new manuscript template to improve the structure, clarity, and consistency of published articles, aligning with international journal formatting standards.
  • Updated Author Guidelines
    The Author Guidelines have been comprehensively revised to provide clearer instructions regarding manuscript preparation, submission procedures, ethical standards, and reporting requirements.

These changes were implemented to enhance the overall quality of submissions, ensure better transparency, and support authors in meeting the expectations of peer reviewers and indexing institutions.

Authors are strongly encouraged to use the latest template and follow the updated Author Guidelines for all new submissions.

JLK will continue to periodically evaluate and improve its policies and guidelines to maintain high standards in scientific publishing.
