However, wedo not accept papersthat have already been published in a journal or book.

Please also be aware that some journals do not accept papers previously published as discussion papers. It isyour responsibilityto ensure that publication in the IZA DP Series posesno copyright conflictsas you cannot withdraw your paper once it is online.
(4) AT WHAT STAGE SHOULD I SUBMIT MY PAPER TO THE IZA DP SERIES?

While you are free to submit papers at any stage of the production pipeline, an ideal time might bewhen you initially submit the paper to a journal, conference volume or other book. At that point the Discussion Paper would still benefit from comments, yet it would not replicate the eventually published version.

Please note thatwe do not update, replace or delete IZA DPs once they have been circulated.We thus suggest that you do not submit your paper at a very preliminary stage.
