The vast majority of ANR foreign-language materials are in Spanish. Their peer review processmanaged by the Spanish-Language Materials Associate Editordiffers from that of English materials. ANR-numbered translations are made only from English text that has successfully passed ANR peer review.
Most multi-chapter, multi-author ANR publications are shepherded by a Technical Editor. This person functions as the primary contact author during the publications production and typically is listed as the books primary author in literature citations.
Charts, graphs, and tables and all photographs and line drawings that provide important technical content (such as identification of a pest or plant) are considered part of text and must be peer reviewed with the text.
Sometimes authors want a manuscript peer reviewed through ANR but wish to produce the finished publications themselves, rather than by Communication Services.
The complexity and length of a submitted manuscript determines how many reviewers should be used in the ANR peer review process. In general, at least one reviewer should be from UC ANR. In all cases, the Associate Editor can serve as a reviewer.
When authors or Associate Editors submit a new manuscript to the online peer review system, they must select a document type. Their options are book chapter, curriculum, electronic publication, and printed leaflet.
