3.2 - Collaborative Copy Editing: Helping the Author Help You

Monday, May 1, 2023
2:30 PM – 3:30 PM EDT
Location: Sheraton Hall ABC
Copy editors frequently act as a bridge between the author and the editorial office in the later stages of production and often represent an author's final opportunity to refine their prose and reconcile any conflicts with house style before publication, a process that can cause stress and frustration for both parties. This session will offer tips to help copy editors fulfill their responsibilities while also considering the author's perspective, including best practices for editing articles written by nonnative English-speaking authors, effective author querying, and respectful query resolution for complex and/or sensitive topics.
