Behind-the-Scenes Manuals, Documents, and Policies for Maintaining Journal Consistency
No full textMany student-run journals, Nota Bene included, feature frequent editorial turnover as academic years pass by quickly and editorial team members graduate or move on. As a result, challenges in maintaining operational consistency can arise. In this presentation, the editors-in-chief of Nota Bene will provide an overview of strategies they use, namely manuals and policy documents, to ensure that Nota Bene’s operations remain consistent and smooth, year after year. The documents about which we will be speaking include our Editors’ Manual, Tailored OJS Manual, House Style Guide, French-Language Submissions Policy, and Review Panel Policy and Guidelines. We will begin our presentation by discussing the context of the creation of these documents and how we keep them organized and up-to-date. We will then go through a brief overview of the content and organization of each of these documents, discussing their specific roles in helping us fulfill our mandate and operational goals and tasks. We will conclude our presentation by emphasizing that every journal is unique. The documents we use are helpful to our operation, and we hope other journal teams find some inspiration from our presentation, but we want to stress that teams should carefully consider the needs of their operation, and develop manuals and policy documents according to those needs
