NBER: NBER working paper submission process
Subject: NBER working paper submission process
From: Nancy Rose (nrose@MIT.EDU)

I've been reminded that it can be challenging to find the directions for
submitting a paper to the NBER working paper series. Here's
help!
There is an online submission form, which includes a link to upload your
paper, at:
http://www.nber.org/forms/wp_submit.html
You will need to enter an abstract in the text box; this is an
important component of an NBER WP.
You can also download a submission form to submit a paper by e-mail or
snail mail; see the directions and links at:
http://www.nber.org/forms/submit.html
Please remember that NBER working papers cannot have policy conclusions,
though policy implications are of course highly valued. The
distinction is that implications tell the reader the
impact/effects of policy choice(s) and allow the reader to infer (using
their own objective function) what choice might be appropriate;
conclusions tell the reader what policy choice to make. If
this sounds subtle, just remember no "should"s in an NBER
WP.
Thanks,
Nancy
