Editors of scientific journals have responsibilities toward the authors who provide the content of the journals, the peer reviewers who comment on the suitability of manuscripts for publication, the journal’s readers and the scientific community, the owners/publishers of the journals, and the public as a whole.
Scholarly Communication & Data Services offers several services relevant to editors. Check out our other guides designed to support researchers at various points of the research and publishing.
Portions of this guide were based on other library's guides supporting journal editing and related topics. In particular, we acknowledge the following guides:
