Manuscript Editing for Journal of Criminal Justice Education Articles
The Journal of Criminal Justice Education is the official publication of the Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences. It offers a forum on post-secondary education in criminal justice, criminology, and related disciplines, with the aim of improving higher education in the field. Taylor & Francis publishes it quarterly under the Routledge imprint, and its editor is in the Department of Government and Justice Studies at Appalachian State University.
Articles run no more than 30 double-spaced pages, counting tables, references, captions, and notes. Book reviews run up to 1,500 words. An unstructured abstract of 200 words opens the article, followed by three to six keywords. References follow the Taylor & Francis version of APA style. One independent expert reviews each paper under single anonymous review. Our editors fit the article to 30 pages and apply APA style throughout. Submissions go through the Routledge Submission Portal.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for the Journal of Criminal Justice Education
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Journal of Criminal Justice Education.
The journal's instructions for authors cover length, abstracts, and references. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
Our legal editing services cover criminology and criminal justice research, where social science references and legal citations meet in the same paper. Academic proofreading covers the final read. If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. We also prepare articles for the Journal of Crime and Justice and the American Journal of Criminal Justice.
