Each chapter in this collection went through at least three reviews:

• An initial draft underwent close reading and response by members of the editorial team.
• A revised draft went through an open peer review.
• A further revised draft went through final editorial review and copy editing.

Each peer review consisted of at least two in-depth responses. Where possible, a chapter was reviewed by both a librarian and by a subject matter expert or open education advocate.

Peer Reviewers

Many people answered the call to share their expertise and critical insights to review and refine chapter drafts. We thank you all for your generous gift of time and thoughtfulness.

University of Rochester Student Copy Editors

A special subset of copy editors are students from WRT 252, Principles and Practices of Copyediting, taught by Dustin Hannum in Spring 2020. In the true spirit of open pedagogy, these students completed copy editing of four chapters as their final project for the course. It is clear from the students’ reports to authors that they took this work very seriously, were considerate in their suggestions, relied on their assigned partner to confirm editorial choices, and learned a great deal from this real-world project.

Hannum summarized the student experience by stating, “every single student indicated that their work on this project was one of the most valuable experiences they had in the class (and at least one student expressed that, as far as school was concerned, it was the highlight of the post-spring break COVID lockdown period for them).”
