Igi Global Template

Authored by Sumalatha Gangadhar | Published on 12 May, 2026

The Igi Global Template is the manuscript-preparation guide for IGI Global journals and proceedings. IGI Global publishes its own author template and reference style, summarised on its IGI Global author resources / instructions for authors.

What is the Igi Global Template?

IGI Global accepts Word and (for some titles) LaTeX manuscripts using its supplied template. The template covers the title block, abstract, keywords, body, references in IGI Global's preferred style, and the declarations block. The publisher's home is on the IGI Global home page.

A standard IGI Global template usually includes:

• Title, author block with affiliations, corresponding-author email, ORCID
• Abstract (typically 150–300 words; check the journal's instructions)
• Keywords (3–6 terms)
• Body sections following IGI Global's preferred heading style
• References in IGI Global's reference style
• Figure captions, table captions, and supplementary information
• Funding, conflict of interest, and data-availability statements

A strong IGI Global manuscript prepared with this template should:

• Use IGI Global's manuscript template — link IGI Global manuscript template
• Match IGI Global's reference style exactly
• Add ORCID iDs for every co-author
• Confirm article-type word and figure limits against the current instructions
• Submit through IGI Global's submission system

What does this Igi Global Template include?

IGI Global's template is available from the publisher's author resources page. The IGI Global journal list / publication portfolio lists the current journals or proceedings volumes. After acceptance, papers are published on IGI Global's site and indexed in its digital library or external databases. Submissions go through IGI Global submission system.

Steps to Use the Igi Global Template with Scispace Agent

1. Click Start Writing on this template page. You are redirected to the Scispace Agent prompt page with this Igi Global Template and a starter prompt already loaded.
2. On the prompt page, choose whether to use the existing template shown in the side panel or upload a new template if you already have a venue- or program-specific copy.
3. Modify the prompt with your custom message: the topic, target IGI Global venue, article type, scope, and any specific constraints (word limit, reference style).
4. Run the prompt. Scispace Agent generates the draft directly in the Igi Global Template structure — title block, abstract, keywords, body, figure/table placeholders, references in IGI Global's style, and declarations — without hand-editing layout code.
5. Use View Outputs to review the draft. Regenerate specific sections if the first pass needs tightening on depth, evidence, or wording.
6. When the draft is ready, save it to your library inside Scispace Agent or download it in Word or LaTeX format so it drops straight into your submission workflow.

This keeps IGI Global formatting and submission rules on the Scispace Agent side while you focus on the contribution.
