This book explores proofreading and editing from a variety of research and practitioner-led perspectives to describe, debate, and interrogate roles and policies within the student and research publication context.

Chapters feature a wide range of empirical research findings gathered from an internationally diverse set of experts in the field from Australia, Canada, Finland, Hong Kong, the UK, and the USA. The book progresses debates surrounding the legitimacy and necessity of copyeditors and proofreaders, drawing upon a range of theory and practice. Contributing to further research and dialogue in the area, the book addresses the ethicality and educative benefits of proofreading from various perspectives.

Ultimately, the book offers vital discussions about the ethics and boundaries of proofreading and editing with experts sharing their experiences and recommendations for next steps. This book will be of relevance to postgraduate students, researchers and academics in the fields of literary studies, higher education, language arts, and applied linguistics. Teaching and learning professionals, policymakers, proofreaders, and editors can also benefit from the volume.
