Rejected journal paper for submission as a book chapter My paper is not accepted in journal. I contacted other journals as well, but they considered it out of scope for their journal. I want to now submit it as a book chapter in springer or IEEE. Please tell if it is possible or not? Is publishing a paper as a book chapter equivalent to publishing in an impact factor journal? I want to acquire scholarship in Australian  university.
This won't work. Research papers aren't published in books.

When papers are published in books - so-called review volumes - they are usually by invitation only. The editor will contact the people who he/she thinks are able to contribute. They aren't research papers either; they're usually reviews.

You're probably best off talking to your supervisor about what to do next. It's unlikely that there are no other journals that will consider your paper; you just have to find them.
