I offer editing and proofreading services, working in the following formats – hardcopy, pdf and Word files.
I recently started a career in editing and am currently completing a number of courses run by the Society for Editors and Proofreaders to advance my knowledge and skills.
I previously worked as a Chartered Librarian, specialising in reference and local history information services. This would often require meticulous work and high levels of sustained concentration and focus (for example, complex enquiry research; creating and assigning metadata), attributes that now are proving to be invaluable in my editing work.
To date, I have edited and proofread a range of material, mainly in the field of Scottish history, both local and national, including journal articles, books, report literature, ephemeral items, exhibition text, theses and dissertations. I would now like to expand my editing work across different fields of knowledge.
