For reviewers
User-friendly system for the communication with editors and sending reviews
The work of reviewers means careful studying of the manuscript, writing of the report, recommendations, and all this has to be met within specific deadlines. In addition, experienced reviewers receive a large number of requests and invitations, and there may be several review rounds. Correspondence with editors is time-consuming, and it is easy to get confused, just like the versions of articles.
When working with the Platform "Alexandrina", reviewers can efficiently evaluate manuscripts without having to think about technical nuances:
- invitations and notifications about review progress come from within the platform and are duplicated by email alerts;
- joint and simultaneous reviews and revisions with all participants of the process (editors, authors and other reviewers) are possible;
- all corrections and person making them are reflected in one working place, and several people can participate in the process at the same time;
- a review history is stored, so it is convenient to track the results of each manuscript.
Advantages of the system for working with reviews:
- feedback system. Reviewers can interact with authors and editors, discuss details and clarify remarks, leave additional comments;
- different review options: open, double-blind, single-sided blind, open after publication;
- support for multiple review cycles. Reviewers can participate in multiple stages of review, ensuring a more complete and objective review of papers.
