Flexible, efficient and affordable – what’s not to like?! Editorial Office accommodated our journal at short notice to provide a reliable editorial service that incorporated our existing processing preferences and delivered to our high standards.
Claire Castle – Managing Editor, Human Relations, The Tavistock Institute
As far as I am concerned, there is no better way of running a journal editorial office that employing Alice, Gill and her team to do it. They are enthusiastic, hugely knowledgeable about all the different ways you can run a journal office and very capable. If someone is sick or on leave, there is always someone else equally capable to step into the breach. If you have a problem, they will know a way out of it. They are flexible and adaptable and thoroughly nice people to work with.I am not aware of any other company that works in this area, with such a broad scope of knowledge and skills. They are, to my mind, unique in their abilities.I thoroughly recommend them to you.
Jane Moody – Head of Publications, Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists
Editorial Office Ltd oversees the complete range of activities associated with online peer review: including liaison with the Society’s in-house staff, international editorial boards and authors. The team has also been involved with induction of new editors, staff training and holiday cover (often at short notice). Editorial Office Ltd operates with the utmost professionalism and is always been responsive to our needs. I would have no hesitation in recommending them for peer review services.
Julie Neason – Journals Publishing Manager, The British Psychological Society
Editorial Office Ltd’s team put in the good work to ensure that the journal runs smoothly, that the authors and referees are given an excellent service and that checks are in place, for example for ethics approval and trial registration which are so important. None of this would be possible without your hard work, attention to detail, dedication to journals and willingness to develop your roles. We couldn’t wish for anything better.
Emily Jesper – Managing Editor, BJOG An International Journal of Obestetrics and Gynaecology, Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists
Charles Darwin, in a letter to Benjamin Dann Walsh (on hearing he had become editor of Practical Entomologist), wrote: “I am rather sorry that you are Editor, as I have always heard that an Editor’s life is one of ceaseless trouble and anxiety”. Having the team at Editorial Office whom I knew I could trust 100% certainly reduced my level of trouble and anxiety.
Alex Bateman – Executive Editor, Bioinformatics
I’m going to say how wonderfully efficient you all are behind the scenes!! (And I know that not all journals will be able to say that!)
Martyn Barrett – Editor, British Journal of Developmental Psychology
In 2008 the Public Library of Science (PLoS) conducted an extensive search for an external partner to provide editorial administration services for our largest journal, PLoS ONE. At that time there were really only 2 organizations who were well established and capable of taking our volume of work (one in the US and Editorial Office in the UK). As a result of a competitive bidding situation we were pleased to select Editorial Office as our partner, and have been extremely happy with their professionalism and levels of service ever since starting the contract
Peter Binfield - Publisher, Public Library of Science, San Francisco
Your input has been crucial in ensuring that the Journal has continued to run on an even keel.
Professor C Simon Herrington – Editor-in-Chief 2007, Journal of Pathology
Diabetologia is a high impact diabetes journal with approximately 2000 submissions per annum. We have used Editorial Office Ltd on several occasions over the last few years when we have been short staffed. Alice and her team have stepped in, often at short notice, to provide cover in terms of logging-on new manuscripts and sending invitations to referees via ScholarOne Manuscripts. Editorial Office Ltd will follow your usual procedures and the handover was so smooth that our Editors didn’t notice any difference. I would thoroughly recommend Editorial Office Ltd for the efficient and prompt service they provide.
Judy Naylor - Managing Editor, Diabetologia
I really appreciate being able to call on you in such an unpredictable fashion, with complete confidence that everything will just be sorted.
