SSRN has established an eSubmission process, allowing authors to submit their working papers to law reviews and other participating journals. This service is free to authors at institutions for which SSRN hosts a research paper series. During the initial startup phase, eSubmission is free to all authors.
The eSubmission service is available at hq.ssrn.com. To use eSubmission authors first need to submit an abstract and paper to the SSRN eLibrary. Then clicking on "eSubmissions" on the left menu of the SSRN User HeadQuarters page, authors choose the paper to submit. Requests can be made to submit to one or more participating law journals. SSRN will send an email containing the abstract, contact information, a note to the journal (if the author added one), and a PDF file containing the paper to each selected journal.
SSRN is directly competing with law.bepress.com/express which submits to 400+ legal journals. Also the most-cited legal periodicals list at law.wlu.edu/library/research/lawrevs/mostcited.asp can be used to simultaneously submit by e-mail to approx. 500 journals, and individually to another 200.
