<div><strong><span id="internal-source-marker_0.8347435165196657">Archive adheres to these PEER REVIEW principles:</span></strong><br /><span>1. &nbsp;Archive will feature alternative modes of authorship and feedback made possible by digital media. &nbsp;To this end, the journal will solicit user comments as a productive form of peer-to-peer review. &nbsp;&nbsp;(A user will have to register in order to comment, but will need only an email to do so.)</span><br /><span>2. &nbsp;We recognize that some authors will have the practical need to build professional standing through their contributions to this journal--and that this goal is often accomplished only through traditionally peer-reviewed articles. &nbsp;Because our goal is to generate a robust interdisciplinary and cross-professional discourse around archives, we do not want to exclude potential authors who require traditional peer review. &nbsp;Some of the journal's content will incorporate blind, closed peer review.</span><br /><span> 3. &nbsp;We are committed to experimentation with peer review, recognizing both the value of peer review to authors and the limitations of traditional practices. &nbsp;We also believe that open peer review can offer insights into the process of creation that are valuable to readers and that facilitate community-building. &nbsp;Some of the journal's content will incorporate open, online peer review.</span><br /><span>4. &nbsp;We believe that authors have the right to choose the kind of feedback they want. &nbsp;Within different categories of content, contributors may have the choice of 1) editorial feedback, 2) open peer review or 3) closed peer review (not all forms of review will be available in all content areas). &nbsp;All lengthy contributions will include space for user comments.</span><br /><span>5. &nbsp;As contributors will have a various forms of feedback provided, we are committed to providing a means for authors to revise their work.</span><br /><br /><strong>For the 360 section and the Archives, Remixed section</strong><br /><span>Essays and responses will go through at least two levels of review. First, an editorial review will be conducted, during which time editors will work with you on your pieces as needed. The second round of review will be open, after the pieces are published online. We will ask members of the Archive planning group to post comments on your pieces, and any reader will also be able to post a comment or response. You are also welcome to post comments during this time on your fellow contributors&rsquo; work or in response to comments on your own work.</span><br /><br /><span>In addition, you may select to have your submission undergo traditional closed peer review. Archive is experimenting with having flexible forms of review to meet the needs of its authors as well as its readers. You may thus opt to have your submission reviewed by an external reader.</span><br /><br /><strong>For other sections</strong><br /><span>Contribution will go through light editorial review.</span></div>
