Sally, Many publishers have policies to prevent multiple submissions by the author and Emerald is no exception. Emerald's submission policy assumes that the content is original and that ownership of the content is transferred from the author to the publisher.

Ex. "Articles submitted to the journal should be original contributions and should not be under consideration for any other publication at the same time. Authors submitting articles for publication warrant that the work is not an infringement of any existing copyright and will indemnify the publisher against any breach of such warranty. For ease of dissemination and to ensure proper policing of use, papers and contributions become the legal copyright of the publisher unless otherwise agreed. Submissions should be submitted by e-mail or on disk to:"
