What you said - Some feedback from our Editors’ Update readership survey


“I would like to share ideas about how to find proper and decent reviewers for the journal with other editors since it is quite difficult to find proper and helpful reviewers nowadays.”

- Hopefully, this special peer-review focused issue helps address this. If you have suggestions for future issues don’t hesitate to contact us.

 

“The colours used in the on-line version don't print very well on a black and white printer - please produce a black and white printer friendly version for printing.”

- You will find the link to this new feature direct from your email.

 

“The webpage is difficult to navigate and is not user friendly”

- We have initiated a project to organize our archive and make sure Editors’ Update is easier to access from the Editors’ Home page: www.elsevier.com/editors. We anticipate this will be completed in July.

 

“Feedback about other editors’ experiences” and “Feedback from successful policies on other journals”

- We have begun a new section “Editors’ View”, to allow you to write specifically about a particular issue or policy on your journal. This can include great successes or significant challenges you face. If you would like to be involved or to submit to the new section, let us know

 

“'I think it's great as it is. The input from senior Elsevier staff (and the pictures, so you can put a face with a name) is important, and I appreciate that their comments are often specific and not just generic sound bites.”

 

In addition, you suggested a number of specific topics you’d like to see covered. We have added these to the list of items that will be addressed in future issues. These include: more information about EES (upgrades), coping with poor quality papers, rewarding authors and editorial board members, ranking journals within disciplines and handling challenging interactions with authors.
