Announcements

Peer Reviewers

2021-05-18

Emails have gone out for the Peer Reviewers for the last two editions of the Journal. Going forward, we will not wait until a paper is published. By the end of August all peer review work for remaining unpublished papers will be documented and emailed, regardless of when the review was conducted. In the future we will be issuing out credit for Peer Review work every June and December. This will give Reviewers timely documentation for their work for the Journal.

If you worked on a paper published in the last two editions of JotNAFE and have not received an email, please contact me at eic@nafe.org. Some of the emails have bounced.

Peer reviewers are vital to our Journal. They conduct the detailed review of a paper's methods and citation. Many jurisdictions and organizations, including NAFE, give PDH credit for peer review work. If anyone wishes to be a peer reviewer, or has been a peer reviewer in the past but has not been active, please contact me and I'll update the roster.
