Subject: Scholarly Editing: Call for Editors
Dear Colleagues,
Call for Editors
*Scholarly Editing: The Annual of the Association for Documentary Editing*
Summer 2023
Dear Colleagues,
As the Editors in Chief of *Scholarly Editing*, we write to issue a call
for editors and other recovery practitioners. *Scholarly Editing *seeks to
develop and advance all aspects of textual and documentary editing,
including the recovery of texts and artifacts that represent and celebrate
the lives and contributions from and about Black, Latinx, and Indigenous
peoples; Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, women, LGBTQ+ individuals,
and people of the Global South as well as others whose history has been
erased, misrepresented, or disregarded. As we strive to diversify the
journal’s staff and bring in new voices, we strongly encourage applications
from these communities, as well as those who have expertise in the
histories and literatures of those groups and peoples. This call reflects
our commitment to ensure the journal’s sustainability by cultivating a
robust editorial team that will succeed the senior editors over time. We
reinforced this pledge in our recent call for contributions
<https://scholarlyediting.org/2022call> for Volume 40, published in 2022.
Applications from outside the US are welcome.
*Scholarly Editing* seeks to fill the following positions on our editorial
team, as described on our About <https://scholarlyediting.org/about/> website
page:
· Reviews Editor (Print and Digital) (1)
· Voices and Perspectives Editor (1)
· College and University Classroom Editor (1)
· Interviews Editor (1)
Editors serve for three-year terms. Because the journal is grounded in
higher education’s tradition of service, the work of editors is voluntary
and uncompensated.
Editors have two main tasks in the production of each annual volume of
*Scholarly Editing*, and both tasks involve spending time on outreach. Each
editor’s first task is to cultivate contributions that speak to the rolling
call <https://scholarlyediting.org/call/>. The editors’ equally important
second task is to cultivate peer reviewers who will adhere to the
journal’s commitment
to generous and developmental peer review
<https://scholarlyediting.org/contributing>.
New editors can expect to spend roughly twenty hours per month on their
work for the journal. Section editors meet monthly to discuss content
development plans for their sections. Members of the executive editorial
team are available for consultation and collaboration as needed.
The deadline for applications is September 30, 2023.
To apply, please complete the application form, which asks for a short
statement of interest. It is available at
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1EUDAKc6UoasxdN53LXN_8uUj4azc7VVxityAI9gTs9I
.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions about *Scholarly Editing* or
the positions that the journal is seeking to fill.
Please circulate widely.
