Call for a Column Co-Editor – Serials Review
Serials Review is looking for a co-editor of the “Balance Point”
column. The “Balance Point” has traditionally served as a forum
for multiple authors who work in areas related to serials and who
present different viewpoints about current issues and
controversial topics related to serials.
The Balance Point co-editor is charged with editing the column
for two issues of Serials Review per year. Responsibilities
include determining column topics, recruiting contributors,
communicating with the journal and columns editors, editing and
incorporating the writing of contributors to the issue, preparing
introductions, and seeing that publication deadlines are met.
The person should be linked to the serials profession, either in
librarianship, publishing or some area of serials content
provision. This person should be curious about exploring issues
related to serials and want to make a contribution to the
literature of serials. Though this is an unpaid volunteer
position, the rewards include publication, involvement in a major
scholarly/professional journal publication, and the intellectual
satisfaction of contributing to the professional and scholarly
discussion of serials.
Interested parties should send a description of their interests
and qualifications to:
Beverley Geer, b_geer_at_yahoo.com or Connie Foster,
connie.foster_at_wku.edu
