Journal Philosophy & Purpose: Given the current culture of many academic journals JOREL will fulfill a major gap created by the distinction placed on “practitioner” versus “academic” shared knowledge. The purpose of JOREL is to deliver best practices and research based information to the outdoor community in one publication.
Journal Format: JOREL, a subscription-based electronic journal, will create greater accessibility to a global audience while maintaining reasonable subscription rates. In addition, using tools from The Berkeley Electronic Press will help ensure compliance with web content accessibility standards.
Primary Editor Responsibilities: The Editor’s primary responsibilities include ensuring manuscript quality, recruiting manuscript submissions, assigning reviewers, tracking submissions and reviewer progress, communication with authors and seeing that publication deadlines are met. JOREL will utilize resources from The Berkeley Electronic Press, such as EdiKit Back Office Solutions to assist the editor in these duties.
The Editor will work with a six member advisory group comprised of two representatives from WEA, AORE and WKU.
Editor Salary: $3,000 annually.
Publication Schedule: Three issues annually.
Editor Qualifications: The successful candidate will have a strong publication record and manuscript reviewing experience.
Interested parties should send CV highlighting publication and manuscript reviewing history to Dr. Thomas Stuessy at: stuessyt@greenmtn.edu
