Volunteer Copyediting

The Quaker Studies journal is reaching out for assistance with copyediting, as part of their ongoing commitment to excellence in scholarly publishing.

Quaker Studies is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to advancing understanding and scholarship in the field of Quaker history, theology, and practice. As you may know, Quaker Studies is now a part of the Open Library of the Humanities (OLH) publication system. With this move, they are faced with the responsibility of copyediting the journal, as this is not a service provided by OLH. As they strive to maintain the highest standards of academic rigor and clarity, assistance with copyediting would be immensely valuable in ensuring the quality and accuracy of the articles they publish.

They are currently seeking volunteers who possess a keen eye for detail, a strong command of English grammar and style, and a familiarity with academic writing conventions. Your role would involve reviewing manuscripts for consistency, clarity, and adherence to the journal’s formatting guidelines.

This is an excellent opportunity to contribute to the dissemination of knowledge within the Quaker community and beyond, while also gaining valuable experience in academic publishing. Moreover, your involvement will directly support the scholarly endeavors of Quaker Studies authors and enhance the overall quality of the journal.

If you are interested in volunteering your time and expertise to help copyedit Quaker Studies, please contact Rhiannon Grant and Rebecca Wynter, editors of the journal: (rhiannon.grant@woodbrooke.org.uk and r.i.wynter@bham.ac.uk).

Thank you for considering this opportunity to support Quaker Studies through your valuable contributions. Should you have any questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to reach out.
