Elsevier Style, Permission Guides, and Book Policies for Authors, Editors, and Contributors Working in Elsa

Authors may use AI tools when preparing manuscripts for Elsevier, but only to support their work—not replace their own critical thinking, expertise, or judgment. All AI use must be supervised by humans, and authors remain fully responsible for the final content. They should review Elsevier’s policy for book and commissioned content to ensure responsible use. AI-generated or AI-altered figures, images, and artwork are generally not allowed, except in rare, exceptional cases.
