Emerald Literati Network Editing Service
If English is not your first language ...
The Emerald Literati Network Editing Service allows authors to contact experienced copy editors to help improve the standard of English in a paper before it is submitted to a journal for consideration.
Emerald is keen to recognize excellence in research and thinking wherever it originates. We wish to avoid these papers being rejected because of the written English, particularly if the author does not have English as a first language.
The editors listed below have been selected by Emerald for the high standards of their work. They are all experienced in either the business and management or scientific and technical fields.
