Different Roles With Us

This is a privileged area for Journal Managers, Editors, Section Editors, Copy Editors, Layout Editors, Proof Readers, Subscription Managers, Reviewers, Readers (Subscribers and Individuals), and Authors to login with us and get the full control depending on the nature of role and tasks entrusted with every post.

Journal Managers

The Journal Manager is responsible for setting up the journal web site, configuring the system options, and managing the user accounts. This does not involve any advanced technical skills, but entails filling out web-based forms and uploading files. The Journal Manager enrols the Editors, Section Editors, Copy Editors, Layout Editors, Proof Readers, Authors, and Reviewers.

Editors

The Editor oversees the entire review, editing and publishing process. The Editor, working with the Journal Manager, typically establishes the policies and procedures for the journal. In the editorial process, the Editor assigns submissions to the Section Editors to see through Submission Review and Submission Editing. The Editor keeps an eye on the submission's progress and assists with any difficulties. Once review is completed, the Editor typically sees the submission through the Editing process (including copyediting, layout editing, and proofreading) although in some journals this remains the responsibility of the Section Editor in charge of the submission's review process. The Editor also creates the journal issues, schedules submissions for publication, arranges the Table of Contents, and publishes the issue as part of the Publishing Process. The Editor can restore archived submissions to the active In Review or In Editing lists.

Editor’s Management Module facilitates management of manuscripts, from their Section of Unassigned, selection for review, detailed review (Editing), assigning them to referees / seeking their comments, providing comments, to the final decision making on acceptance, revision and rejection. Editors can share their views with the referees and Pezzottaite Journals publication team.

Editorial Board comprises of experts / professionals who, on formal invitation from Pezzottaite Journals have kindly consented to provide their valued editing / review services, and to guide / support the publication team of the Pezzottaite Journals.

Section Editors

The Section Editors manages the review and editing of submissions to which they have been assigned. In some cases, a Section Editor who is assigned to see submissions through the Review Process will also be responsible for seeing the submissions that are accepted through the editing process (that is, through copyediting, layout editing, and proofreading). Often, however, Section Editors only work with the review process, and an Editor, acting in the role of Section Editor, sees the submissions through the editing process.

Subscription Managers

The Subscription Manager manages the journal's subscriptions and subscription types, and can also configure where and how payments are handled within the system.

Copy Editors

The Copy Editor edits submissions to improve grammar and clarity, works with authors to ensure everything is in place, and ensures strict adherence to the journal's bibliographic and textual style, and produces a clean, edited copy for the Layout Editor to turn into the galleys that will be in the published format of the journal.

Layout Editors

The Layout Editor transforms the copyedited versions of the submission into galleys in HTML, PDF, PS, etc., files which the journal has elected to use for electronic publication. Layout Editor creates galleys and presents the articles on the screen with a well-formatted and readable layout, in the manner of scholarly journals, and with an eye to this new publishing medium. In some cases, the Editor or Section Editor will also serve as Layout Editor.

Proof Readers

The Proof Readers carefully reads over the galleys in the various formats in which the journal publishes (as does the author). The Proof Readers (and the Author) record any typographic and formatting errors for the Layout Editor to fix. In some cases, the Editor or Section Editor will also serve as Proof Readers.

Readers

Readers include both subscribers for journals for which access is subscription based, and readers who choose to register for pay-per-view. Registered readers receive a notification email with the publication of each issue, which includes the ‘Table of Contents’ for that particular issue.

Authors

Authors are able to submit manuscripts to the journal directly through the journal's website. The Author is asked to upload a submission file and to provide metadata or indexing information. (The metadata improves the search capacity for research online and for the journal.) The Author can upload supplementary files, in the form of data sets, research instruments, or source texts that will enrich the item, as well as contribute to more open and robust forms of research and scholarship. The Author is able to track the submission through the review and editorial process - as well as participate in the copyediting and proofreading of submissions accepted for publication - by logging in to the journal's website.

Reviewers

The Reviewer is selected by the Managing Editor / Section Editor to review a submission. Reviewers are asked to submit reviews to the journal's web site and are able to upload attachments for the use of the Editor and Author. Reviewers may be rated by Section Editors, again depending on the policies for this journal. Reviewers are required:

• To complete the online review form;
• Make annotations on the manuscript itself - using track changes or highlighting your comments - then upload that document;
• Upload review recommendation; and
• Complete the procedure well in time.
