Research Editing

Maintaining the standards of the ADB as Australia’s pre-eminent dictionary of national biography is very much a team effort, the General Editor, Editorial Fellows, and expert readers each having an important role. The research editorial staff of the ADB, all of whom hold postgraduate qualifications in history, are responsible for verifying historical and biographical details where possible, and ensuring that there are no historically important gaps or omissions. They also have responsibility for applying house style and editing each article for grammatical form. In undertaking their responsibilities, research editors collaborate with authors, who have the final say over the shape of the published product.
