Description

This how-to book covers the entire scope of newsletter and journal editing. Beginning with the role and responsibilities of the editor, it continues with discussions of editorial outlook, motivation, and skills, along with policies and procedures that provide guidance for editing. The nature of the workplace, automation, authors and manuscripts, the vital editorial manual, production, and ethics are also covered. Pertinent to editors of journals and newsletters, and their contributors, the book should also be of value to public and academic libraries, courses in journalism, publishing, and writing, and associations or organisations that publish journals or newletters.
