The library's standard editing service includes the following:
Substantive Editing
We suggest ways to improve the clarity, organization and persuasiveness of a document; note instances in which references are needed; identify areas with too little or too much information; and ensure that the document fits the scope of the target publication.
Copyediting
We ensure that each document conforms to the publisher’s or funding agency’s guidelines; check for errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation, word choice, parallel structure and basic math and percentages; and cross-check tables, figures and figure legends with the main text and vice versa.
Request Editing Services
All editing is performed by scientific editors, many with more than 25 years of editing experience. Request this service for your grant proposal or manuscript at: https://www3.mdanderson.org/library/services/editing.html#.
